About Cimarron Model No.3 Schofield CA850
Schofield Patent Revolver - In the late 1860's the U.S. Army was shopping for a breech loading fixed cartridge revolver to replace the aging 1860 Colt Army percussion revolvers. They tested the Colt single action and the S&W Model No. 3 American. The test resulted in the adoption of the Colt single action Army Model of 1873 and passing on the less powerful and more delicate 1869 S&W Model No. 3 American. Because the superior loading/reloading capability of the S&W American was recognized by Army ordnance, in 1875 Major George W. Schofield identified and Patented improvements in the design of the S&W Model No. 3 American and the Schofield Patent Revolver (Model No. 3 Schofield) was born. The S&W Model No. 3 Schofield was greatly improved over the Model No. 3 American. The latch on the Schofield can be operated with one hand while on horseback and empty cases automatically ejected. Considered by many to be superior to the Colt single action when in the hand of mounted troops... The Schofield was definitely produced ahead of its time. The Army purchased some 9000 Schofields but due to a lack of promotion by the maker, one of America's greatest firearms ceased production. The Cimarron Schofield is the most authentic replica Schofield available today.

I bought one of these due to my interest in late 19th century arms, cavalry arms in particular. I can%u2019t fault the fit and finish on this gun, as it is superb. I did find a couple tiny cosmetic flaws but nothing that would upset me. I have always been

If your are into cowboy action shooting or you just love old revolver designs then the Cimarron Model 3 Schofield in 45 Colt is for you. The workmanship by Uberti is 'high cotton." You certainly get what you pay for. The top break action is amazingly fast

The Cimarron CA850 model 3 Schofield is excellent. The fit and finish are excellent. The balance and feel are excellent and it handled very well at the range. The sights on mine shot a bit high at 10 yards and were at pint of aim at 25. Recoil was pleasan

Just amazing. The only complaint I have is that these didn't play a larger part in American history! The action is smooth, the trigger is fantastic, the ejector is a conversation piece. This thing is a bit heavy but that makes it all that much better. I w

Very nice gun. Five stars. The auto ejection system is very handy & eliminates ejecting each shell as in most other single action revolvers. The gun was received as advertised in excellent condition . I have only shot a few hundred rounds of reloads as of

Very nice looking gun once you get the oil off. The amount of sticky storage oil on this gun is excessive to the point its a issue. 2 hours to clean most of it off.I wish Uberti would use gun oil instead!! Trigger was a bit creepy and stiff about 5-6 lbs.

I wanted this pistol for years but was reluctant to spend the money on a reproduction firearm. After seeing one a friend had ordered from Bud's I was hooked. I ordered the next one available, and have never been sorry. The revolver is a pleasure to shoo

Beautiful gun. Has very good balance. It is not as good as a natural "pointer" as my 1872 army open top, but I like it better than my '73 clones. This is a very cool replica of American history. Service from Buds was great.
