Taylor & Company 1873 Cattleman Birdshead .357 Mag/.38 Spl Single Action Revolver – 4.75″ Blued Barrel, Case Hardened Frame, Walnut Grip

The Taylor & Company 1873 Cattleman Birdshead is a beautifully crafted single action revolver that combines classic 19th-century aesthetics with reliable modern craftsmanship. Chambered in .357 Magnum with compatibility for .38 Special, this 6-round revolver is built around a forged steel case hardened frame paired with blued steel barrel, cylinder, backstrap, and triggerguard — delivering a timeless, authentic finish that collectors and enthusiasts will appreciate.

The defining feature of this model is its distinctive birdshead-profile walnut grip, giving the revolver a compact, classic “belly-gun” silhouette that sets it apart from traditional Cattleman variants. The smooth walnut grip panels offer a comfortable, secure hold while enhancing the revolver’s handsome overall appearance.

With a 4.75″ round barrel, 6-groove rifling with a right-hand 1:18.75″ twist, and a retractable firing pin safety housed in the hammer, the Cattleman Birdshead is engineered for both dependable performance and responsible handling. Sighting is handled by a fixed front blade and a rear notch machined directly into the frame, keeping the classic single action profile clean and uncluttered. The half-fluted cylinder adds a refined detail consistent with the revolver’s premium build quality.

Taylor Tuning is available for this model, allowing shooters to further optimize action smoothness and performance to personal preference.
