Taylor Uberti Short Stroke Runnin Iron 1873 Revolver 45 Long Colt With Low Flat Hammer Spur, Checkered Grip, And Case Hardened Frame 3.5" Barrel Model 556217

Exclusively from Taylor's & Co., The Short Stroke revolver is an improved single-action revolver perfect for competition shooting or the avid arms collector. It can be built with the low-set Smoke Wagon hammer or the lower and wider profile Runnin Iron hammer. It also features a blue finish with a case-hardened frame, and a richly detailed, checkered grip for comfort and improved aim. For shooters that prefer a larger grip the bigger, Army style Gunfighter grip is also an available option. All of the previous features are available on both the standard and Taylor Tuned version of the Short Stroke Cattleman. The Taylor Tuned action on the short stroke revolvers includes hand polishing on most internal parts and some spring modification, however the spring pressure is left at factory settings for optimal performance.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this particular item.

The 45 Colt (45 Long Colt) was introduced in 1873 in Colt's Single Action Army. Adopted by the U.S. military in 1875, it served until 1892 when it was replaced by the less powerful (and unsatisfactory) 38 Long Colt. Originally loaded with 40 grains of blackpowder and a 255-grain bullet the 45 Colt produced about 900 feet per second for more than 400 foot-pounds of energy, a powerful handgun cartridge for its day--and any day. Using a .454-inch bullet, today's standard load retains the 255-grain bullet at 860 fps. Lighter bullets at somewhat higher velocities are available. 45 Colt was the most common chambering in Colt's single action. Today it is chambered in virtually all centerfire single-action revolvers and has been chambered in numerous large-frame double-action revolvers. 45 Colt is the most popular revolver cartridge in cowboy action shooting, and remains a powerful and effective personal defense cartridge, its only drawback being the necessity for a large revolver to house it. — Craig Boddington
