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 single-action revolver in .45 Colt caliber offers a nostalgic design rooted in classic Western aesthetics, paired with solid performance for recreational shooting and historical reenactments. Its accuracy is commendable, delivering consistent groupings at moderate ranges when paired with quality ammunition. The ergonomics are well-suited for most hand sizes, providing a comfortable grip during extended sessions. Reliability is a strong point, with the mechanism functioning smoothly under regular use, assuming proper care. However, maintenance can be somewhat demanding, as the traditional design requires meticulous cleaning to prevent wear. Availability of replacement parts may pose a challenge, especially for less common components. The trigger pull is crisp, with a predictable break that aids precision, though the felt recoil is noticeable, particularly for newer shooters unaccustomed to the .45 Colt’s robust kick. It’s a capable choice for enthusiasts valuing heritage over modern convenience.
