Tex Jones, SASS 2263 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Cimarron Firearms lists one on their website, under SAAs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 If you are talking 3" ejectorless, I thought Uberti hadn't made them in years, but I saw them recently on Dixie Gun Works site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeb Gray, #36839 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Buffalo Arms shows the 3 1/2" Sheriffs model (with ejector) in .45 Colt in stock. Out of .38s & 44-40s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninety Caliber Al, 50218 Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 Thx guys, looking for the short ones,without ejector(23/4” or 3”’) not sure on bbl length. Saw an older Colt at a gun show that looked like 23/4”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Colt made lots of short guns, down to 2" and maybe less. Here is the 3" at Dixie: https://www.dixiegunworks.com/index/page/product/product_id/8789/category_id/319/product_name/CR0654+UBERTI+1873+CATTLEMAN+SHERIFF+NEW+MOD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I don't think they are still making them, but Colt was still marketing them just a couple of years ago. Added bonus to a Colt, even brand new they are C&R. (But only in .44 or .45) I've got two of them with dual .44-40 and .44 Special cylinders. Loads of fun. Especially if you pair one with a Buntline Special. You see them on Gunbroker and other sites fairly regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duster Tom Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 I have a Colt in 44-40 with a spare .44 Special cylinder. Great gun. There are also shopkeepers model around with a slightly longer barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Coles SASS 1188 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Years ago, I had an Italian one (it was the actual one Mike Venterino reviewed for G&A). It was a very good and accurate gun. In the 80s I shot it in CAS matches as a pocket pistol. Tons of fun especially with full house BP rounds (I once set a pocket pistol target on fire from the muzzle blast). I sold it on at some point but now have a 3rd gen Colt 44-40/.44 spl. Rules have changed and they are no longer legal for pocket pistol so I don’t get to shoot it much but it is still cool. My old friend, the late Diamond Dick (SASS hall of fame) used to carry an engraved, nickle Sheriff’s model with ivory grips as his duty gun when he was captain of homocide for the Sacramento Sherriffs department. A class act. I have not seen an italian one for sale in a while. For some reason they seem to only make the version with an ejector (a gun that never existed). Colt made some very nice sherriff’s models recently in .45. Not sure if they are still available new, but used ones are around. Expensive, but worth it in my opinion.
