Uberti - Outlaw, Frontier and Police

Visit us: http://bit.ly/CheaperThanDirt

Uberti revolvers include the 1875 Army Outlaw, 1875 Frontier, and 1890 Remington Police.
Remington entered the cartridge revolver market in 1875 when it introduced a big-frame, Army-style revolver—a six-shooter—to compete with the Colt Peacemaker. The 1875 Remington single actions kept the solid frame and overall styling of Remingtons 1858 percussion models. Ordinary citizens and Old West lawmen alike recognized the sturdy quality of the new Remington revolvers. The infamous Frank James even carried one for most of his outlaw career. Faithful reproductions, the Uberti 1875 Army Outlaw and 1875 Frontier are available in Franks favorite caliber, .45 Colt.
The Remington Police revolver, manufactured between 1890 to 1896, was produced in very small numbers. It is one of the most prized cowboy revolvers among Old West collectors. Of the fewer than 2,000 produced, only a handful of Remington 1890s ever saw service as police revolvers; those that did were primarily used as side arms by Indian police on Western reservations. The 1890 Remington Police is chambered in .357 Magnum and .45 Colt and comes complete with a lanyard ring, just like the original.

@CornFedArmen Yeah, all old American revolvers were SA...Americans have always been marksmen, while Europeans had empires to fight for. Distances were longer in the West, but a British officer fighting off colonial rebels needed rate-of-fire more than accuracy. That's the "official story", anyway. When the US was in the Phillipines, they found that their .36cals weren't cutting it, and a .45 Colt SAA was too slow...thus began the M1911, a .45 that was both SA AND fast-firing.

@snakemanmike Reminds me of how the British and Europeans were experimenting with small-bore military calibers like .280's (and smaller), with decent results, but the US insisted on a full power round as the standard NATO round. So they dropped all their .280 work and armed in 7.62x58mm to make the US happy...and then within a decade we came up with this "brilliant new idea" to go to 5.56mm instead. Funny, now we've gone the full circle back to 6.8mm, etc. Myself, I'd stick with the .30cal.

@StratConstatine It's just you.

[snakemanmike]

@justforever96 And when the US went to the 9mm in 1985, it was mostly for political reasons. Special ops have gone back to the tried and true 45 ACP for the same reason it was adopted in the first place, stopping power.

I would definitely take a pair of the 1875 remingtons.

[ntrudr800]

I would like to see the butt ring put to use.
