Product Features & Specifications

Taylors & Company 550957 The Hickok Open-Top 45 Colt (LC) Caliber with 3.50" Blued Finish Barrel, 6rd Capacity Blued Finish Cylinder, Color Case Hardened Finish Steel Frame & Walnut Army Size Grip

Although it appears to be a conversion, the 1871-72 Open Top model was Colts first revolver specifically manufactured to fire a centerfire cartridge by incorporating the loading gate in the frame. Since Colt did not use percussion revolver parts, the revolver was manufactured as an entirely new model, first with Navy-sized grips, later with Army-sized grips.

The Hickok model is a modern twist on the classic Open Top that features a snub nose barrel. This model features a case-hardened forged steel frame, round barrel with front blade sight, no ejector rod, blued steel grip parts, an Army-sized walnut grip, and a rear sight notch on the rear of the barrel.
