Love 'em. We have four Uberti SAs via Taylors. Be hard to pick one - they all shoot great - but maybe this 45, also with a 5 1/2" barrel (my favorite).

This is a bit off topic, but as I understand it Uberti and Cimarron are about like Dodge and Plymouth. This is about the weirdest revolver I've seen. No loading gate. The cartridge is just wide open after you load it in. Point the barrel up and it will just fall out. No ejection rod either. You have to just let gravity pull out the empties, or pick them out with a fingernail.

I keep wanting a nice cowboy gun, but given the amount of range time my one single action gets (Single Six) I know what the result would be.

Cimarron and Taylors are simply importers. They don't make any guns, though Cimarron claims to do extra QC when they bring guns in and also to have a close working relationship with the Uberti plant in Italy, though to what extent is debated in some circles. Both offer some in-house gunsmithing on selected models. The point is that they don't make guns, only import them. In the past, there have been other importers.

Note, too, that Cimarro and Taylors also import other brands of Italian guns, such as Piettta, Pedersoli and so on, meaning not all Cimarrons or Taylor guns are made by Uberti. My Cimarron Frontier 357, for instance, is a Pietta and has also been a great gun. Very accurate. Outshot my Ruger Vaquero and has a better trigger to boot, so the Ruger is gone.
