Product Summary

When centerfire brass cartridges first became available in the mid-1850s, there were few firearms in circulation that were ready to accept them, although percussion revolvers were plentiful. Using the Model 1851 Navy revolver as a base, Colt employees Charles Richards and William Mason developed a procedure where they would cut the rear of the cap and ball cylinder off, and install a conversion ring to accept the new ammunition. Conversion revolvers such as this one were commonly seen and quite popular in their day.

Taylor & Co is proud to offer this modern-day reproduction, which is now enjoying popularity in Cowboy Action competition and Old West re-enactments. Featuring a color case hardened frame and brass trigger guard, this fully functional replica shoots as good as it looks.

Note: This firearm has a 5.5" barrel. The 7.5" version is pictured.

Caliber Dictionary

The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
The 38 Special (38 S&W Special, 38 Colt Special) was introduced in 1902. It is essentially a slightly extended 38 Long Colt case, length 1.1551 inches, with operating pressure increased from 13,000 to 17,000 psi. Bullet diameter is .357-inch. The 38 Special became the gold standard personal defense revolver cartridge and was standard among most American law enforcement agencies for many years. Bullet weights vary from 110 to 158 grains, with a 158-grain bullet at 800 feet per second the most common. In the 1960s pressure was increased again to 18,500 psi, creating the 38 Special +P load, with increased velocity and energy. 38 Long and Short Colt ammunition can be fired in any 38 Special chamber, but not the reverse. 38 Special +P is safe in modern steel-frame 38 Special revolvers, but should not be used in aluminum-frame 38 Special revolvers. 38 Special remains a standard and popular revolver chambering. — Craig Boddington
