Taylors & Company Outlaw Legacy 45 Colt 4.75″ 6rd
About this product
What is the Taylors & Company Outlaw Legacy 45 Colt 4.75″ 6rd? It's a single-action revolver chambered in .45 Colt with a 4.75-inch barrel and six-round capacity, built on a forged steel frame with blued engraved finish and fixed sights. This modern reproduction of the 1873 Cattleman design maintains authentic western aesthetics while meeting contemporary manufacturing standards. It bridges historical appeal with reliable performance for recreational shooting and collection.
What is the Taylors & Company Outlaw Legacy 45 Colt used for?
This revolver is designed for cowboy action shooting, recreational target practice, and display collecting. Its single-action mechanism and period-correct styling make it ideal for historical reenactments and competitive shooting events that require authentic firearms. The fixed sights and 36.8 oz weight provide stable handling for medium-range accuracy.
How does the Taylors & Company Outlaw Legacy compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle?
The Outlaw Legacy excels as a close-range revolver for quick-draw scenarios, while the Stevens 334 Rifle in .308 Win offers superior long-range precision with its 20-inch barrel and bolt-action system. The revolver's six-round capacity and 4.75-inch barrel prioritize maneuverability and rapid engagement under 50 yards, whereas the rifle's magazine-fed design and extended barrel support accurate shots beyond 200 yards.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The revolver weighs 36.8 ounces (1043 grams) and measures 10.25 inches in overall length with a 4.75-inch barrel. Its cylinder diameter is 1.75 inches, and the grip frame accommodates standard single-action holsters. The balanced weight distribution reduces muzzle flip during rapid firing sequences.
Who is this NOT for?
This revolver is not suitable for tactical or defensive use due to its single-action operation and limited capacity. Shooters requiring high-volume fire or modern safety features should consider semi-automatic pistols. The fixed sights and traditional grip angle may also challenge those accustomed to optics-ready or adjustable-sight platforms.
What's in the box?
The package includes the revolver, one six-round cylinder, and a manufacturer's warranty card. Unlike modern firearms, it does not come with additional magazines or cleaning tools, reflecting its historical design philosophy. Owners will need to source period-correct leather holsters and loading tools separately.
Is the Taylors & Company Outlaw Legacy worth it at $728.99?
At $728.99, it represents fair value for enthusiasts seeking an authentic-style single-action revolver with reliable construction. Compared to custom-built replicas costing over $1,200, this model offers accessible entry into cowboy action shooting without sacrificing durability. For broader utility, the Stevens 555 Sporting O/U Shotgun provides more versatility in hunting scenarios at a similar price point.
