The Taylor Uberti Runnin Iron is a stainless single-action revolver built on the 1873 pattern, chambered in .357 Magnum. The 5.5-inch barrel gives it good balance for range work or hunting, and the stainless finish handles humidity and light weather without much fuss. Walnut grips and a low-flat hammer spur round out the traditional feel.

Detailed Features: 

The low-flat hammer spur is the detail that distinguishes the Runnin Iron from a standard 1873 clone. It's designed to draw cleanly without snagging on clothing or a holster, which makes it more practical for daily carry than a traditional wide-spur hammer. The stainless construction resists corrosion well, and the walnut grips give a secure hold during recoil. At 2.5 lbs with a 5.5-inch barrel, the balance point sits naturally for one-handed shooting.

The Runnin Iron tends to get positive reviews from people who like the 1873 platform but want something more practical than a pure collector's piece. The stainless finish and low-spur hammer are consistently called out as smart design choices for a working gun rather than a shelf piece. Handling and the smooth action get mentioned often, and most owners are happy with accuracy at range distances.

Weight and size come up occasionally for those thinking about carrying it, and some feel the price is on the higher end compared to other 1873-pattern revolvers. Neither complaint seems to dampen enthusiasm much. Most buyers knew what they were getting into with a quality Uberti.
