The Taylors & Company Runnin Iron Black Rock combines traditional single-action design with modern manufacturing precision for competitive shooting and recreational use. This 45 Colt revolver features a black nitride finish that provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard bluing.
What Makes This Different
The Black Rock series incorporates Taylor's signature polishing process with a durable black nitride coating that maintains the classic revolver aesthetic while delivering enhanced protection. The 4.75-inch barrel length provides optimal balance between accuracy and handling speed. Checkered walnut grips offer secure purchase during rapid fire sequences, while the traditional single-action mechanism ensures consistent trigger pull weights.
