Cimarron 1851 Richards-Mason Conversion Revolver – .38 Special 4.75″ Case Colored/Blued with Walnut Grips

Step back into the golden era of the American West with the Cimarron 1851 Richards-Mason Conversion Revolver in .38 Special. This historically inspired single-action revolver brings together authentic 19th-century aesthetics and modern centerfire functionality, making it a standout choice for Cowboy Action Shooting competitors, collectors, and Western firearms enthusiasts alike.

Built on the classic 1851 Navy profile, the Richards-Mason conversion design faithfully recreates the transition-era revolvers that bridged the gap between cap-and-ball and cartridge-firing firearms. The 4.75″ octagon barrel is finished in rich blued steel, perfectly complemented by a striking case colored/hardened frame that showcases the craftsmanship Cimarron Firearms is renowned for. Warm, hand-fitted walnut grips provide a comfortable, period-correct feel in the hand.

Adding to its authentic character, the revolver features a polished brass backstrap and trigger guard — a hallmark of the original Navy Colt design. The 6-round cylinder chambers the widely available .38 Special cartridge, offering reliable performance with a broad selection of modern ammunition. Fixed sights keep the sight picture clean and true to the original, while the standard trigger and hammer deliver the crisp, deliberate action expected from a quality single-action revolver.

At 43.2 oz., this revolver has a solid, reassuring heft that speaks to its quality construction. Whether you’re competing on the SASS circuit, building a curated Western collection, or simply appreciate historically significant firearms, the Cimarron 1851 Richards-Mason is a piece worth owning.
