Uberti Cattleman .45 Colt
Ok,looks like I'm going to get one of these: Uberti Cattleman Hombre .45 Colt, looks to be a matte finish with steel/brass back strap/ trigger guard, 4.75" barrel. What do you folks think of this? Damn Cattleman are hard to locate, but, found this. Well, let me have it.

Ive got the ElPatron tuned model of it. They shoot lead well. Takes some getting used to the fixed sights. Mine tends to shoot the heavier bullets low with the 6 o’clock hold.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: Uberti Cattleman .45 Colt
I've got two Uberti Cattleman 5.5" six shooters; a Taylors' Smokewagon in .357 and a Taylors' Ranchhand in .22LR. Both are beautiful replicas that are a lot of fun to own and shoot. Congratulations. You'll love it. But, pay attention to the screws. They're notorious for loosening.

Re: Uberti Cattleman .45 Colt
I was looking at the Drifter .45 Colt from the Taylor collection and liked that octagonal barrel and it would look good next to my .45 Carbine but they are all out of stock. The Ubertis I have shoot well and nice quality.

I liked that Oct barrel to Forty. Probably find one on gunbraker

Re: Uberti Cattleman .45 Colt
We have four of the Uberti Colts and two are in 45 Colt. All excellent guns for the money and, yes, the Uberti 45 Colts are optimized for shooting lead, as were the original Colt SAs. Love my Ruger single actions, but the fit and finish and triggers can't compare to the Uberti Colts.

Re: Uberti Cattleman .45 Colt
Just saw the EMF line up of the same revolver. These look good. Anyone have info on these? Looking at the "Californian"' model. Thoughts?

Re: Uberti Cattleman .45 Colt
In my experience, a Uberti is a Uberti. The outlet you choose is mostly a matter of customer service, support and extras they can provide. No experience with EMF, but all our Ubertis came from Taylors and could not be more pleased. Have never seen a lemon Uberti that comes from Taylors, either.
One thing you should do before getting too set on a particular model is check for availability, as in contact the seller. This pandemic has really put a crunch in the supply of Uberti and other Italian guns. Right now, a gun actually sitting on the shelf at your local gun shop is gold compared to trying to order something.
