Pietta Model 1873 Revolver

The Pietta 1873 is a copy of the Colt 1873 Army revolver and features all of the classic attributes of the original.  The 1873 has a 4.75” barrel in front of its 6-round cylinder that is loaded and unloaded through a loading gate along the side of the receiver.  Its iron sights are non-adjustable with its front sight fixed to the barrel and its rear sight cut into the top of the frame.  Its single-action trigger provides a crisp brake and the checkering on the hammer allows for easy cocking before firing.  The spring loaded ejection rod under the barrel easily removes spent or unfired cases from the cylinder.
