Taylor's & Co 1873 Cattleman: The Classic Single-Action Army
The Taylor's & Co 1873 Cattleman is a reproduction of the Colt Single Action Army, the revolver that defined the American frontier. Available in .357 Magnum, .45 Colt, and .44-40 Winchester, the Cattleman features a case-hardened frame, a blued or nickel finish, and walnut or simulated ivory grips depending on configuration. Taylor's & Co versions are distinguished from standard Uberti imports by factory-tuned actions—smoother trigger pull, reduced hammer weight, and tighter cylinder timing. For SASS cowboy action competition or historical collecting, the Cattleman is the benchmark single-action revolver in this price class.
Taylor's & Co Smoke Wagon: The Competition-Ready SAA
The Smoke Wagon is Taylor's & Co signature competition revolver—a tuned 1873 SAA with a short-stroke action, wide hammer spur, and a smooth-faced trigger for fast double-tap shooting in cowboy action competition. It ships with a polished and deburred action, reduced spring weights, and a walnut grip. The Smoke Wagon is available in .357 Magnum and .45 Colt and is one of the most popular competition-ready SAAs available without paying for a custom gunsmith action job. SASS shooters who want to step up from a standard Cattleman will find the Smoke Wagon dramatically faster out of the box.
Taylor's & Co 1860 Army and 1858 Remington: Cap & Ball Revolvers
Taylor's & Co imports Uberti-made reproductions of the Civil War-era Colt 1860 Army and Remington 1858 New Army cap-and-ball revolvers. Both are .44 caliber and function identically to their 19th-century originals—charged with loose black powder or Pyrodex, a lead ball, and percussion caps. The 1860 Army uses the Colt open-top design; the 1858 Remington uses a topstrap frame that allows cylinder swaps for faster reloading. These are fully functional firearms, not decorative replicas, and they require no FFL transfer in most states. For black powder shooting enthusiasts and Civil War collectors, both are meticulously executed.
Taylor's & Co Lever-Action Rifles: 1873 and 1886 Reproductions
Taylor's & Co offers Uberti-made reproductions of the Winchester 1873 and 1886 lever-action rifles, both iconic American designs. The 1873 is chambered in pistol calibers including .357 Magnum, .44-40, and .45 Colt—allowing cowboy action shooters to use the same ammunition in both revolver and rifle, a practical advantage in competition. The 1886 handles larger rifle cartridges including .45-70 Government and .454 Casull. Both feature period-correct walnut stocks, blued or case-hardened receivers, and smooth lever throws tuned by Taylor's & Co before import. Paired with matching Cattleman revolvers, the 1873 rifle and revolver combo is the classic SASS competition setup.
Taylor's & Co vs Standard Uberti Imports: What's the Difference?
Taylor's & Co sources many of the same Uberti-manufactured guns available through other importers but adds meaningful value before they reach shelves. Their “Taylor Tuned” program subjects revolvers to a factory action job—polishing internals, fitting cylinders, and reducing trigger pull weight. Some models receive exclusive finishes, grip materials, or caliber options not available on standard Uberti imports. The result is a gun that competes with custom-action revolvers costing significantly more. Buyers who have handled both a standard Uberti import and a Taylor's & Co tuned version consistently note the difference in action quality immediately.
