PT7 -- Stallion loose on the Range

Post by PT7 » Tue Nov 06, 2018 4:38 pm

Second time at the range today with this Uberti 1873 Stallion .22LR revolver.

I brought 120 rounds of ammo, but only got to shoot 1/3 of it. The range had a air circulation problem, and they shut it down to have a technician come out to service it. So these two 6" paper targets show only 20 POIs each using CCI Std Velocity 40gr LRN ammo.

I was planning to shoot at 12 yards and 15 yards when they called the permanent cease-fire. That's okay. A good thing is that the range rep gave everyone who was there a free pass to shoot another day. Even though I had a good start to a planned 120 rounds, another range visit for no charge is just fine.

Here's the range story in photos. Pretty steady on the sights today for only the second time shooting it....the Stallion wasn't bucking at all!
Have a good day, Everyone.

That is a nice looking pistol. I have one that looks just like it except I thought it was a Cattleman. It’s a hard one to aim with the flat sights.

Thanks, Gene. Yeah, the 1873 SA Cattleman looks about the same as my revolver. But I've seen the Cattleman offered on the Uberti website only in these calibers: .45 Colt, .357 Mag, .44 Mag. Didn't look any further to see if it is made in a rimfire caliber. What caliber is yours?

The fixed sights on my SA revolvers work fine for me and my elder eyes (at least for now!). That's why I'm shooting these SA wheel guns nowadays. Plus just plain 'ole like the looks of Cowboy action revolvers.

Very nice, Bob! Beautiful revolver and great targets to boot!

Thanks for sharing! Let me know when you're thinking about using your free pass, I might truck over that way. Depending on timing, i might even have some hand-loaded 357 Mags for my BBS!

Sounds like a plan, Evan. Will do.

PT, have to say, you are building a very nice single action collection. Love that Uberti. Been looking for one, myself, but not many shops carry Uberti around these parts.

Appreciate that, NCG. I would not have thought I'd ever have a SA collection, but it suits me just fine. The PT7 gun cabinet "residents change" just has been too long in its coming, particularly with the unrealized challenges I've had shooting long guns. Cross-eyed dominance has made that tougher to enjoy.

You and a couple of other Forum Folk have mentioned that shops in your areas don't carry Uberti replicas. Never can figure how different LGS stock their shelves. These guns are available here fairly often. I have two LGS less than a dozen miles from me, and a third one (on the KS side), which is about 25 miles away. I have seen Uberti revolvers in each shop. Go figure.

Hope you find one someday; and in .45LC, which I'm sure you would enjoy a lot.

Cool-looking revolver, Gene.

Around noon time today, BillyBoy posted a Range Report where he shot his Cattleman in .22LR. So now I really do know that the rimfire caliber is available in that model, too. Hard to keep track of so many gun models on the web sites!

Looks like a fun revolver to shoot. Uberti sure does a nice job on their replicas.

So, I've been window shopping for the 1873 Uberti Stallion .38s New Model. At some websites I come across Uberti 1873 Cattleman Stallion. What's with that? I thought Cattleman and Stallion were separate/different revolvers.

Why don't you get the one that holds 12 rounds of .22 rf?

I don't know which websites you've viewed, which publish various nomenclature for the Uberti replicas. Rather than wade through those differences in nomenclature, I went directly to the Uberti web site to find my Stallion: https://www.uberti-usa.com/stallion-revolver

My revolver (.22LR) is on this web page, and there also is offered the Stallion in .38 Special caliber. When you view this page, there are two links (gun photos) titled "Stallion" and "Stallion 10-shot." Immediately below those links, the revolver description tells you that the Cattleman and Stallion are different models of the original Colt S/A revolver....the key is the size of the revolver.

Then scroll further down on the page, and you'll find that under "specifications" there is only one model number that lists the Stallion in .38 Special. If this model matches what you want in the Uberti S/A, you've found it. Hope this helps.

I have enough .22s. So was looking for a larger caliber. The only other caliber in the Stallion is the .38s.

.
I started with the Uberti website. I had found the .38s there. I started with their "find a dealer", but the list that comes up for my area is useless. The list in half the dealers don't carry the Stallion and the other half of the list doesn't sell firearms. So that sent to search online dealers. Here is one example where 'Cattleman' is used in conjunction with 'Stallion' in the product description: https://www.budsgunshop.com/catalog/pro ... alnut+Grip.

Sounds like from the additional information you pointed out on the Uberti website a dealer should not be using those two words together. That they are separate distinct products unto themselves.

Your BGS revolver is also listed on the Uberti page I posted...model 349879. So if I wanted this Stallion model as described on the Uberti sight, BGS has the correct gun --- setting aside the BGS nomenclature. Here were my experiences and shopping challenges to recently "build" my small Uberti SA revolver collection.

1) I got the 1874 Russian top break at BGS. Found the model number of the top break I wanted on the Uberti site, and BGS had the exact revolver in stock.

2) Same scenario as #1 for my 1890 Police.
Had some identification oddities here, however. The gun box showed the correct model number, and said it was an 1890 Police from Uberti. But it also listed on the box that it was the Stoeger distributor. Yup, my 1890 Police has Stoeger stamped on the barrel, plus it wasn't stamped a Police revolver; rather it was stamped an Outlaw :? :?: Such is the odd way of things. I had the right revolver I wanted in the correct caliber; I liked the looks very much, and I kept it as is. But the nomenclature on the gun itself and the box seemed liked it went awry from who-knows-where. I've not totally been able to figure it out, nor could my FFL shop. Such is the odd way of it.

3. The 1873 Stallion was a snap to buy. I visited a LGS about 8 miles from my home, and there it was in the gun display case. I wasn't looking for one; just "window shopping." But it was configured exactly the way I've always wanted a SA .22LR revolver. It took me probably less than 2 minutes to tell them that I would buy it! Within 1/2 hour or so I was on my way home with it.

Sounds like you have some shopping challenges with availability in your area. Best I can say is that whether you buy one from an internet shop, or find one in an LGS, the key is the exact Uberti model number from their web site. I'm all but certain that will do it and you'll have what you want.

I bet that .38 Special will be fun to shoot. And as I've found with my 3 single-actions, a well-made, quality revolver.
Best in your search.
