The Taylor’s & Company 1873 Cattleman in 9mm (MPN 551018) is a single-action Western revolver built with a color case-hardened steel frame and a 5.5-inch blued barrel, bringing the classic Cattleman profile to a modern, easy-to-shoot cartridge. Taylor’s & Company finishes the cylinder in blued steel and equips the revolver with fixed blade-front and notched-rear sights for traditional single-action aiming. The 6-round cylinder feeds standard 9mm ammunition. Among Old West reproductions in the revolvers category, the 1873 Cattleman favors shooters who want the classic case-hardened look with an affordable, widely available chambering.
