The Cimarron CA346 Model P Thunder delivers authentic single-action performance in a compact, quick-handling package designed for shooters who value traditional craftsmanship. This 45 Colt revolver combines the classic Colt Single Action Army design with a distinctive birdshead grip configuration for enhanced control and faster draw times.

What Makes This Different

The birdshead grip frame sets this Thunder model apart from standard single-action revolvers, providing a lower bore axis and more natural point of aim. The 3.5-inch barrel length strikes an optimal balance between accuracy and portability, while the color case hardened frame displays the heat-treating patterns that made original Colts legendary. Unlike mass-produced alternatives, each Thunder features hand-fitted components and traditional bluing processes.

Key Features

  • 45 Colt chambering delivers proven stopping power with classic cartridge compatibility
  • 3.5-inch blued steel barrel optimized for accuracy and manageable recoil
  • Birdshead walnut grip provides secure hold and faster target acquisition
  • Color case hardened steel frame showcases traditional heat-treating artistry
  • 6-shot cylinder capacity with exposed hammer for reliable ignition
  • Fixed sights regulate for standard 45 Colt loads at 25 yards
  • Compatible with period-correct leather holsters and modern retention systems
Field performance reflects the Thunder's heritage-inspired engineering. The single-action trigger breaks cleanly for precision shooting, while the shorter barrel maintains sufficient velocity for hunting applications within 50 yards. Weather-resistant blued finish protects against moisture and handling wear during extended outdoor use. Competition shooters appreciate the consistent lockup and smooth cylinder rotation that supports rapid target engagement.
