Traditions 1873 Rawhide SAO 22 LR Revolver 4.75" Barrel 6-Shot

The Traditions 1873 Rawhide Single Action Only revolver brings classic Western styling to modern .22 LR shooting with reliable rimfire performance. This 6-shot revolver features traditional single-action operation that requires manual cocking for each shot, delivering the authentic feel shooters expect from an 1873-pattern design.

What Makes This Different

Unlike modern double-action revolvers, the 1873 Rawhide maintains pure single-action mechanics that provide consistent trigger pull and enhanced accuracy potential. The 4.75-inch barrel length offers an optimal balance between velocity and handling, while the blued steel construction provides corrosion resistance superior to basic carbon steel finishes. The checkered PVC grips deliver secure handling without the maintenance requirements of traditional wood grips.

Key Features

• Single-action only operation with manual hammer cocking for precise shot control
• 4.75-inch blued steel barrel optimized for .22 LR velocity and accuracy
• 6-round cylinder capacity with traditional loading gate design
• Checkered black PVC grips provide consistent texture in all weather conditions
• Fixed front and rear sights for reliable target acquisition
• Traditional 1873 Colt SAA styling with authentic proportions
• Steel frame construction handles extended shooting sessions

The .22 LR chambering makes this revolver ideal for target practice, small game hunting, and introducing new shooters to single-action fundamentals. The rimfire cartridge produces minimal recoil while maintaining sufficient accuracy for precision shooting at typical handgun ranges. Weather-resistant blued finish protects the steel components during outdoor use, while the synthetic grips maintain their texture through temperature changes and moisture exposure.
