Grip options: 1873 Cattleman


John Kloehr

Recommended Posts

Thinking towards Christmas as a present to myself for next summer...

 

I have a nice pair of 1873 Uberti Cattleman revolvers (.44 Special).

 

In the Tennessee heat, they are not solid in my sweating hands.

 

Did find these on the Uberti site ($220  for the pair):

Opinions or options?

Looks like you could solve the slippery grip problem at lot less experience.  Just stripping the plastic finish off would go a long way. 

 

But Sawmill Mary and I both have Smoke Wagons with these checkered grips and they work in hot weather.

If you do send your grips off to be engraved, jot the sn of the gun they came off of on the inside of the grip. That way there’s no confusion as to which goes with which. Just a thought….,,,,

NC Ordnance has grips for Cattleman revolvers for less, I have installed several. Minor fitting, well made, lots of options. They are one of the sponsors of the Tennessee State match.

I see they kicked the price up again!! $29 ... usually $15-17 but no biggie ...

These work great (same grip frame as Cattleman .. and are cheap!!).

Nice and thin and easy to hold on to ...

I've looked for those grips when wanting to replace ones on my Cattleman but never found them.  I ordered a pair of reproduction (fake) Colt grips from MidwayUSA but they wouldn't and couldn't be made to fit.
