A. Uberti Firearms 1873 Cattleman II New Model, .45 Colt, 4.75″

The
Uberti Cattleman II with retractable firing pin is a breakthrough for
those seeking enhanced safety with regard to original Old West revolvers
without sacrificing the visual authenticity of a 1st-generation Colt.

As any cowboy knows, the safest way to carry a single-action is with the
hammer resting on an unloaded chamber. This is true even for the Uberti
retractable firing pin design. But in the case of the Uberti design,
the risk of accidental discharge is reduced: the firing pin is not
locked into the firing position unless the trigger is pulled.

This enhanced safety feature is available without a visible transfer bar
safety, which those who insist on visual authenticity might not want.
In other words, from the outside this revolver’s looks and operation are
identical to those of an original.
