Taylors and Company 450DE | 1873 Ranch Hand | .45 LC

The Taylors and Company 1873 Ranch Hand Deluxe is a traditional single-action, six-shot revolver chambered in .45 Long Colt with a 4.75 inch barrel. It combines a color case-hardened frame with blued cylinder and barrel and a smaller Navy-size walnut grip. This example is Taylor Tuned—hand-polished with lighter hammer and trigger springs for a refined single-action pull.

Its heritage profile and tuned action make it appropriate for cowboy action competition and recreational target shooting where period-correct ergonomics and classic styling matter. The Ranch Hand also appeals to collectors and shooters who prioritize traditional single-action handling and finish variety.
