Cimarron Richards-Mason Conversion Revolver

In the realm of firearms history, few innovations stand as significant as the conversion revolvers conceived by Charles B. Richards and William Mason. Patented on July 2, 1872, their design transitioned Colt's percussion revolvers into self-contained metallic cartridge breech-loading arms. This ingenious evolution not only preserved the elegance of classic sixguns but also introduced a new era of convenience.

The Cimarron Richards-Mason Conversion Revolver is a tribute to this pivotal moment in firearm development. Due to the high cost and scarcity of original models—of which only around 3,800 Navy models were produced—Cimarron's replicas are invaluable for Cowboy Action competitors and nostalgic gun enthusiasts alike.

This particular model features a striking Black finish that complements its historical lineage while offering modern reliability. The barrel measures an impressive 7.5 inches, providing both aesthetic appeal and practical performance in target acquisition and accuracy.

Caliber: .38 Special
Barrel Length: 7 1/2 inches
Style: Cartridge Conversion
Frame Finish: Case Hardened with Brass Backstrap & Trigger Guard
Total Weight: Approximately 2.83 lbs

A standout feature is its one-piece walnut grip—a testament to craftsmanship that ensures comfort during extended handling sessions. While it respects tradition through its blued finish frame, each component has been meticulously crafted to meet today's standards without sacrificing authenticity.

Cimarron's dedication shines through every detail; from the case-hardened brass backstrap to the precision machining reminiscent of bygone eras when icons like Dallas Stoudenmire wielded similar arms with authority on frontier streets.

If you seek a piece that embodies both heritage and functionality for reenactments or personal collection enhancement—the Cimarron Richards-Mason Navy Model stands ready at your service: A true homage where past meets present seamlessly encapsulated within steel artistry.
