The Taylors and Company Old Randall .357 Mag 4.75in 6rd Blued is a single-action revolver that pulls you back to the frontier, but with enough modern punch to keep you grinning at the range. Chambered for .357 Magnum (and happily digesting .38 Special), this six-shooter pairs a matte blued steel frame with matte brass accents and a case-hardened hammer. The 4.75-inch round barrel and Navy-size walnut grip make it a natural pointer, whether you’re working a steel target or just admiring the craftsmanship. This is a revolver that feels like a piece of history you can actually shoot hard.

Key Features
- Period-Inspired Matte Brass Accents – Why it matters: The brass trigger guard and grip frame give the Old Randall that classic 19th-century look without the glare of polished brass, so it stays period-correct and practical for low-light shooting.
- Case-Hardened Hammer – Why it matters: A traditional color case-hardened hammer not only looks authentic but provides a durable, wear-resistant surface that stands up to thousands of cocking cycles.
- Navy-Size Walnut Grip – Why it matters: The Navy-size grip fills the hand better than a standard-sized grip for most shooters, offering a secure purchase and better recoil management with .357 Magnum loads.
- Fixed Blade Front Sight with Frame Notch – Why it matters: This simple, no-nonsense sight setup is fast to acquire and rugged enough to never lose zero, exactly what a working single-action revolver needs.
- 6-Round Cylinder in .357 Magnum – Why it matters: You get the versatility of shooting mild .38 Special for plinking or full-house .357 Magnum for serious work, all in a six-shot cylinder that’s built to handle the pressure.
Who It’s For
This revolver is for the collector who wants a shooter—not a safe queen. If you appreciate the lines of an Old West sixgun but want the reliability and power of a modern .357 Magnum chambering, the Old Randall is your ticket. It’s also ideal for Cowboy Action shooters looking for a gun that stands out in a sea of standard Peacemakers, or for anyone who simply enjoys the feel of a well-balanced single-action on the range.
Pros & Cons
- Pros: Authentic period styling with durable matte finishes; accepts both .357 Magnum and .38 Special; Navy-size grip fits medium to large hands well; case-hardened hammer adds character and longevity.
- Cons: Fixed sights limit windage adjustment—you’ll need to file the front blade or drift it if the gun shoots off at your distance. Also, the matte brass finish can show handling marks more readily than polished brass.
