Pietta is known worldwide for their authentic historical firearms reproductions.

“We are excited to start up yet another venture by creating exclusive firearms from Pietta”, said Kane Cannedy, Davidson’s VP of Purchasing. “This is a project we have worked on for some time and it’s fantastic to see Pietta bring it to life.”

Offered in both .357 Magnum as well as the more traditional 45 Long Colt, these Davidson’s Exclusives feature a deep blued finish on the frame, cylinder, and barrel. The trigger guard, front strap, and back strap are a high-polished brass.

The sights are the open fixed type with a notch at rear and a bladed front. These 1873 models feature the traditional four-click hammer and both chamberings have 4.75” barrels.

Item #PSA454, 45 Long Colt

Item #PSA354, .357 Magnum

Both models have an MSRP of $519.99.

First Look: Springfield Armory Model 2020 Waypoint Bolt-Action Rifle

At the heart of the rifle is the Model 2020 action which wish designed and built with very tight tolerances thanks to Springfield's technology-driven manufacturing capabilities The stainless steel action features an integral recoil lug, and pairs with a fluted bolt employing dual cocking cams and an enhanced extractor for high pressure loads. The blueprinted and precisely machined action allows Springfield to offer the Model 2020 with .75" MOA accuracy guarantee. Despite being a production rifle, the Model 2020 should rival more expensive custom builds.
