Hello all, looking for a 4 3/4” to try a local cowboy shoot. I will be looking
for a holster later. Thanks

Another look
I have one near mint in box with a trigger job by a guy in West Virginia whose name I have forgotten, but it has a 7.5” barrel. Great shooting piece. PM me if interested.

Thanks much Jeff, let me think about that barrel length.
For what it's worth - I have a 7 1/2 Uberti Cattleman in 45 LC - it's a well balanced and accurate shooting piece of iron - the 7 1/2" was a very commonly carried barrel length - check out Packing Iron - a lot of beautiful photos of original six gun leather - I don't do cowboy shooting but unless you're looking to set time record - clearing leather with the 7 1/2" is a matter of practice and I have found with mine that where I point it . . . it hits - but barrel lengths are a "personal thing" - good luck in your search - you'll love a 45 Cattleman.
A "bump" for a man seeking his "holy grail"
