Uberti’s Wyatt Earp series 1873 Single Action Army is a steel-frame reproduction chambered in .45 Colt with a six-shot fluted cylinder. It uses a single-action-only mechanism and features a Buntline-style extended ejector-rod housing with a forward barrel support band, terminating several inches behind the muzzle on its extended 10-inch barrel.
The frame and receiver are color case-hardened, while the barrel and cylinder wear a polished blue finish for a traditional two-tone appearance. Fixed sights consist of a front blade and a topstrap groove rear, providing an authentic sight picture for this pattern.
