Cimarron Stainless Frontier .45 Colt

From the Hip

The Cimarron Stainless Frontier is a Single Action Army-pattern gun that boasts of accuracy and reliability.

It has been more or less 50 years replicas of the legendary Colt Single Action Army revolver. While early examples lacked in overall quality, today's guns are hugely improved, well-made, accurate, attractive and offered at reasonable prices.

The Colt Single Action Army played an important role in U.S. history, particularly in settling the western frontier, where it found favor with soldiers, lawmen, cowboys, outlaws or anyone that needed a powerful and reliable sixgun. Collectors eagerly snap up vintage guns while paying astonishing prices. This is not only due to its historical connection, but rather the quality associated with period Colt sixguns. While the SAA may enjoy large collector appeal, it is also a grand and timeless design for shooters and is useful for anyone that needs a rugged and reliable big bore sixgun. I have seen them take severe neglect and use, and keep working without a hitch. Cimarron's Stainless Frontier is an SAA reproduction, but it boasts of modern steels and small internal changes that make it ultra-reliable and a worthy companion at a competitive price.

Unlike previous Uberti SAA-pattern sixguns, the Cimarron Stainless Frontier features a recoil plate.
