Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Uberti 1860 Army Fluted revolver is a faithful reproduction of one of the most distinctive early variants of Colt’s legendary .44 caliber percussion sidearm. Introduced in 1860, the original Colt Army revolver was prized for its improved handling, lighter weight, and streamlined design—offering greater firepower than earlier Dragoon models while maintaining superior balance and ergonomics. Among the earliest production types was a version featuring a fluted cylinder, which distinguished it from the more common rebated and roll-engraved styles. These flutes not only gave the revolver a unique and refined appearance but also helped reduce overall weight and dissipate heat more effectively during extended firing. Uberti’s reproduction captures the character of this rare early model with exceptional historical accuracy and craftsmanship. It features a classic 8-inch round barrel, the elegant lines of the open-top frame, and Colt’s innovative “creeping” loading lever for enhanced reliability.

This version is built with a steel frame, a blue steel backstrap, and a brass trigger guard—faithful to the materials used on original early-production Colts. Chambered in .44 caliber, the revolver delivers the same hard-hitting performance that made it a trusted sidearm for Union cavalry and frontier adventurers alike. With its graceful profile and distinctive fluted cylinder, the Uberti 1860 Army Fluted stands out as both a collector’s piece and a practical choice for black powder enthusiasts, reenactors, and those who admire its historically significant design.
