Glad they didn’t copy heritage with the safety.

[@sharonrigs7999]

Safety's on a SAA is like an ashtray on a motorcycle

[@Antioch_PrinceoftheHunt]

Amen

[@HircineDaWolf]

@@sharonrigs7999 its for importation reasons, heritage idk but they are owned by taurus now, idk where they are made. For the 1870s open top models the safety is a screw you have to turn on the hammer to disable the hammer lol. So you never worry about it.

If Colt grips fit the frame, they have a winner.

Having a first click safety notch seem superfluous with a transfer bar but is acoustically pleasing

Good observation on the small pistol primers.

[@thisISaPENn]

Man wish I had these when LPP were impossible to find.

[@TUCOtheratt]

Nice video. I've never handled a Taurus single action revolver. A lot of people ask me about them. I'm curios if you know if the ejection housing is screwed directly into the barrel (like early 1st gen colt and Ubertis) or into a lug like (2+3rd gen colt)?

[@halfcirclehranch6877]

Right now, the HSM using small primers is very interesting... with reloading components still often hard to come by, large pistol primers are extremely rare, while small primers are easily found. They assume everyone's reloading 9mm. Having .45 Colt casings that use small primers could be very useful.

[@vehdynam]

Nice revolver for sure ; the slow motion was great. Many thanks.

[@BayM14]

I found your channel a couple years ago and you helped me learn alot about black powder revolvers when I started becoming interested in them. Thanks for the great videos.

Definitely looks like a nice revolver.

Gorgeous looking gun

[@markyoung2981]

Nice review of an interesting looking single action revolver. Thank you for sharing this video with us.

[@TheLoneRanger745]

It looks great ❤. Maybe Altima will make some Beautiful grips for it soon . 1873 Colt Model "P" said to be the most natural aiming Revolver EVER made 🤠. You know, Colt did make them with black heavy polymer type grips , maybe for a better balance in hand , although walnut looks better to me . If you've seen John Wayne's six gun he has a yellowish orange grip I'm not sure but i think it some type of Ivory Maybe. But it's definitely one of a kind I've never seen another pistol with that color grip.

[@ghostwolf4354]

I can attest to the natural pointing. I have a second-get Colt SAA that has no front sight post - and it looks like a prior owner actually milled it off or had it professionally removed, as the finish where the sight would be is flawless. That's what caught my eye on this particular pistol, and ultimately why I bought it. At 30' it hits exactly where I expect it to - without a front sight. Only revolver I own that I can say that about.

[@tomcurran8470]

Cimarron has that Rooster version with that aged ivory (fake) grip. They can't use the Duke or John Wayne as his name is copywrited by the Wayne family. Same with the Duke holster by El Paso, they had to change the name to #100 or something.

[@brucegreen1556]

Just picked mine up yesterday! Going to the range this week.

[@GunsOfTheWest]

Nice! I’d love to hear how it goes!

[@claywurzlow8487]

Great 👍 video/Thanks

[@grapenut9]

One thing to watch out for is the cylinder base pin bushing popping out of the center of the cylinder while removing the cylinder from the frame. Taurus is notorious for not having parts available for most of their guns and this little part would be a nightmare to replace. I have thoroughly enjoyed mine, so far. I chose the 5.5" 38/357 sku.

[@PaulBodyBuilder]

Love Taurus

[@robertpresley6414]

The hammer reminds me of a Crosman single action bb revolver I had many years ago.

[@robertpresley6414]

I also don't like the "Deputy " on the left side of the barrel. I do like Taurus though. I have a Model 65 357 that is fantastic.

[@bobrocks8387]

My next revolver!😊

[@DMEII]

Sweet.

[@chillios2222]

reminds me of Vegas , just outside LV

[@careycarson7629]

I'd love to see these guns with the Franzite imitation jigged bone grips, like the kind you see in old Hollywood Westerns. With that blued finish it would complete the look.

[@anangryranger]

Dustin, I was interested in the shooting of this weapon after seeing the unboxing earlier. It does appear to shoot straight and smooth. As I said in my comment on the unboxing, I'm relieved to see it doesn't have that free spinning nonsense like Ruger builds. Having used SAA revolvers since childhood (started in 1958, yeah I'm old), when I bough a Ruger Blackhawk 44Spl on the 357 frame, the weapon lasted a month before I traded it off. Couldn't get rid of it fast enough. I simply despised it! So I'm glad Taurus built this weapon along the proper operation methods. It reminds me of the Bounty Hunter in it's action. Thanks for the update on this weapon. 👍

[@tomcurran8470]

Yeah, but all of the CAS shooters swear by the Rugers and kinda look down on Colt clones. I don't like the Ruger free cylinder either and prefer a Colt or it's clone.

[@anangryranger]

Yup, but they want to appear as being "period correct", but most are highly altered. Personally, I don't think much of this run up to a bench and firing as fast as possible at targets a few feet away. 🙄🥱

[@kajusrieger9216]

Interessant😊😊

So the big 10,000 dollar question is... did make this strong enough for Ruger tuff loads?

[@wesleyhalpern184]

Of course not🥴 look how thin the top strap is

[@tomcurran8470]

Not if it is a Colt clone. Don't try it.

[@robertwess4556]

Well done Sir. btw your arm tat: If I am not corrected: Is that not Greek Molon Labe?

It is.

[@phill1777]

I wonder how this, or the .357 would do with magnum "Ruger rounds"?

[@checkeredred6460]

How much did you give for it, it's a Taurus so I figured it would be cheaper than most others

[@cliffchilders5820]

I had 2 of the Tarus goucho's... They were both "junk"! So their quality had better be improved!

Does anyone know if there are wood grips available for it or if it fits grips from another model single action ?

[@furmanmackey5479]

You have probably covered, or at least mentioned this at some point, but how do modern "cowboy action" rounds compare velocity, down range effectiveness wise to 19th century factory BP "serous business" rounds? I'm a big bore handgun and rifle kind of guy and I can't help but be curious. Excellent video on a SA revolver that, had it not been for you, I might never have known existed. Keep up the great work you do!

[@GunsOfTheWest]

The cowboy action loads are lighter. Maybe I’ll do a video comparison with the chronograph. Thanks for watching!

[@ChargerusPrime]

Personally, now im EXTREMELY torn! Do i go with the sexy 4 clicks of this or do i go with the ruggedness and strength of a Ruger new vaquero??? They have the same features as far as that transfer bar (which is EXTREMELY smart on their part.) But Rugers are TOUGH ASS GUNS and can handke ANY abuse. They also aint much different in terms of cost either.. ah sod it, im gettin a Taurus deputy. It can be my winter carry round whilst im dressed in me ol saddle slicker and black felt. (Yes, im crazy enough to carry a single six.. in tandem with my Smith and Wesson m&p9 m2.0 compact 9mm anyways) lmfao

[@skswig1]

are these flat spring or coil spring ?

[@biggusdickus5986]

Yep

Thats the rub, you never know when you buy a Taurus/Rossi. If you get a lemon they may or may not correct the issue.

[@craven1927]

So, this is Taurus's version of the Ruger Vaquero

[@raymillsap8613]

No it's a version of a colt which the ruger is a copy of

[@craven1927]

@raymillsap8613 the Colt doesn't have a transfer bar, thus the Ruger reference

[@raymillsap8613]

@@craven1927 👍

[@cammobunker]

Well...sort of. The lockwork is obviously different as it does not allow the cylinder to spin just by opening the loading gate, and that's a pretty big difference (and probably patented by Ruger). This is more a copy of some of the old German cheap-o SAA copies that came into the US in the 70's. Taurus has obviously going to use better steel and whatnot, but it's pretty similar to the old "Virginian" named guns that were made by (I think) RG. Maybe Roehm? Decent designs, but executed in cheap castings of Zamak (pot metal). I'm sure Taurus is using all steel. It looks nice.

[@danmarcell3167]

Taurus tried this before with the gaucho that didn't go over well

I WAS going to get one of these until I saw that they only had plastic grips. So I ended up getting another Pietta.

[@biggusdickus5986]

The grips are heritage true, as Colts had grips made of Gutta Percher an early form of plastic.

[@mikemuhlbach2951]

I actually like the plastic grips on my Pietta Gunfighters 45-colt and 357magnum convertibles.

Looked interesting until I went to the site and noticed the word "Deputy" carved into the barrel in huge movie-poster letters. Funny how the video doesn't show that side...
