Pietta Great Western II 1873 .357 Mag Case Hardened Frame with Black Metal Revolver

A: Alexander, this model has the Floating Firing Pin for safe loading of all 6 rounds. Cheers and stay safe!

A: These have a floating firing pin Wich makes it safe to load all 6 rounds. Until you put pressure on the trigger the firing pin won't engage. Hope this helps.

A: Alexander, this has a transfer bar. I emailed MGE Wholesale this morning, my question -- "Hello, Can you please tell me if this gun has the firing pin or transfer bar? Thank you." Reply from MGE -- "Good morning, Transfer Bar Safety, I do not see your FFL based on the information you have provided. Please send a copy of your FFL and we will have a salesperson contact you." So there you have it straight from the horse's mouth. Have a great day!

A: Let's all just choose the answer we want to be the best answer, instead of the best answer. MGE Wholesale confirmed this gun has a transfer bar. What more proof do you want?

A: Kenneth, yes sir, this is California compliant. Single action revolvers with atleast 5 rounds, a 3 inch barrel or longer and overall Length of 7.5 inches are permitted. So this is perfectly legal in California. Hope this helps.

A: Yessir this is legal in CA. Here's a link to Confirm https://wbtguns.com/handguns/pietta-1873-single-action-revolver-california-legal-38-357/

A: Ken, yes this is CA compliant. Permissible handguns that are NOT on the handgun roster: ✔ Single-action revolvers that have at least a 5 round capacity with a barrel length of at least 3 inches and an overall length of at least 7½ inches are permitted. Have a great day!

A: Yes! This has a blued 4.75" barrel, blued trigger guard, color case hardened frame, and one-off dark brown rubber grips according to the distributor. I hope this helps!

A: John, yes sir, this has a blued barrel and case hardened frame. No brass here. If you Google the upc 641996200458 you can find better pictures.

A: Sherman, yes sir, any 357 Magnum revolver will also fire 38 special ammo safely. So you can use 357 Magnum for defense or 38 special for lighter recoiling range fun. Hope this helps.

A: Sherman, yes, .38sp is a lower pressure cartridge and is safe to fire from gun rated for .357. You just can't do it the other way around. Have a great day!

A: Sherman, absolutely. Any .357 Magnum firearm can fire the shorter and less powerful .38 Special. Just remember that firing the shorter 38 case will create a carbon ring at the end of the cylinder over time making using the longer .357 Magnum sticky to chamber / eject until the cylinder is cleaned / reamed. Cheers and stay safe!
