About the Gun

Stampede series revolvers are modern reproductions of classic 19th century old west single-action revolvers. They replicate the dimensions, cosmetics and feel of the legendary Old West sidearm, while discretely incorporating the most modern safety features and manufacturing materials. Also, the feel and functioning is like the originals, with a multiple-click single-action hammer mechanism and a half-cock position that allows the cylinder to spin free. Stampede revolvers are actually produced at the Uberti Aldo & Co. manufacturing facility, which was acquired by Beretta in 2000.

Analysis

This .357 Magnum revolver offers a solid blend of traditional design and practical performance for shooters seeking a single-action firearm. Its accuracy is commendable, with a well-balanced barrel that aids in consistent shot placement during target practice or casual plinking. The ergonomics are a highlight, featuring a grip that fits comfortably in most hands, reducing fatigue over extended sessions. Reliability is another strength, as the mechanism operates smoothly under varied conditions with proper care. However, maintenance can be somewhat demanding, requiring regular attention to keep the action in optimal shape. Parts availability may pose challenges for some users, as sourcing replacements or upgrades isn't always straightforward. The trigger pull is crisp and predictable, though it may feel a bit heavy for those accustomed to lighter setups. Felt recoil is noticeable but manageable, especially with standard loads, making it suitable for a broad range of shooters.
