Cimarron Pistoleer:
Old West Soul, Modern-Day Smarts
A Sixgun Worth Slowing Down For
Every now and then a revolver comes along reminding us why the single-action sixgun refuses to fade into history. The Cimarron Pistoleer is one of those guns.
At first glance, it looks like it rode straight out of the 1870s. The lines are classic, the profile instantly recognizable, and the walnut grips feel right at home in a leather holster. But look a little closer and you’ll discover the Pistoleer blends traditional cowboy styling with a modern safety system designed for today’s shooters.
Traditional Looks, Modern Engineering
Built by Uberti for Cimarron Firearms, the Pistoleer features Uberti’s Fully Automatic Safety Hammer system. Unlike the traditional Colt-style arrangement where carrying six rounds was generally discouraged, the safety design allows the hammer to rest safely over a loaded chamber while maintaining the authentic look and feel serious sixgun fans appreciate.
Best of all, the safety system doesn’t compromise what matters most to single-action enthusiasts: a crisp trigger and traditional handling characteristics. The gun still feels like a proper Old West six-shooter every time the hammer comes back and locks into place.
Handsome From Every Angle
The Pistoleer is available in several configurations. The popular 4.75-inch .357 Magnum model features a blued barrel and receiver paired with a nickel-plated steel backstrap, polished hammer and trigger guard for an eye-catching two-tone appearance. A .45 Colt version is also available with blued steel backstrap, hammer and trigger guard. Shooters wanting a little extra sight radius can opt for the 5.5-inch barrel version in either .45 Colt or .357 Magnum.
All models include charcoal-blued screws and attractive two-piece walnut grips accented with Cimarron’s embedded coin medallion, adding just enough flair without going overboard.
Built To Be Shot
What makes the Pistoleer especially appealing is how well it balances tradition with usability. Reports from the range praise its natural pointing characteristics, comfortable balance and enjoyable shooting manners, whether chambered in the legendary .45 Colt or versatile .357 Magnum. The design handles recoil well and delivers the kind of shooting experience making it hard to stop after just one cylinder.
This isn’t just a display piece for the gun safe. It’s a working sixgun equally at home punching paper, ringing steel or accompanying a Cowboy Action shooter to the firing line.
Final Thoughts
The Cimarron Pistoleer proves you don’t have to choose between authenticity and modern practicality. It offers the looks, balance and character of a classic Peacemaker-style revolver while incorporating a safety system today’s shooters can appreciate.
With an MSRP of $648.75, the Pistoleer delivers plenty of sixgun charm for the money. If you’ve been searching for a traditional revolver with a little extra peace of mind, this Cimarron deserves a place on your short list.
