The Cimarron Firearms 1875 Outlaw Nickel is a single-action revolver chambered in .45 Colt, modeled on the Remington 1875. At 41.6 oz with a 7.5-inch barrel, it has good balance for deliberate, aimed fire. The nickel finish looks period-correct and resists corrosion better than traditional bluing. Walnut grips provide a comfortable hold during extended range sessions. 
 
The single-action mechanism means you cock the hammer manually for each shot, which suits shooters who want a deliberate trigger pull and fits Cowboy Action Shooting rules. The .45 Colt cartridge carries authority at typical pistol distances.

Owners generally like the 1875 Outlaw's looks and historical fidelity. The nickel finish draws the most attention -- it photographs well and holds up reasonably in field conditions. Cowboy Action Shooting competitors mention it by name as a solid fit for the sport, and collectors appreciate how closely it follows the original Remington design.

Shooting performance gets positive marks too. The trigger pull is described as satisfying for a single-action, and recoil from the .45 Colt is manageable at typical range distances. Accuracy is consistent with what you'd expect from a 7.5-inch barrel.

The main criticisms are about weight and handling. The long barrel and 41.6 oz total weight make it less quick to draw than shorter revolvers, which matters to some shooters. A handful of users mention that keeping the nickel finish looking clean takes more upkeep than a blued gun.
