I found a brand new 1875 Outlaw in 45 LC for $450.00. It was too good a deal to pass up. I cancelled my order for an Uberti Cattleman SAA as I figure that I could find one at anytime. However, a Outlaw is hard to find and I handled one today and liked the feel of the revolver. I am also thinking that the extra weight will help with .45 LC recoil. As Robert Duvall said in Open Range, "I like a pistol with a little heft." The look of the pistol is beautiful. I will look at the Cattleman SAA as my next purchase.
Got the Cimarron 1875 Outlaw!

I agree with your choice. SAA clones are relatively easy to come by. You don't see the Remington repros very often. Would love to see a pic.

You DO KNOW that you're not going to get a moments rest until we see PICTURES. Right?

Sorry to disappoint you all
Well , I went back to the local gun store and handled the Outlaw again. To my disappointment and surprise; it seemed to lack the quality that I had imagined from the website pics. I did some extra research and found that there are some historical quality control issues with this Uberti Outlaw revolver.
Also, it was a very tight action. Therefore, I changed my mind and got Ruger Blackhawk in .357 with rosewood grips. It has many more ammo options (including a 9MM cylinder). I have struggled to find any .45 Colt ammo; especially Cowboy Action loads. Whereas, .357 and 38 Special ammo seem more available and much cheaper. I can also shoot any ammo without having to go to Cowboy Action loads.
So, I changed my order and am getting the Blackhawk in 4 5/8 inch barrel. It also cost almost $20.00 less that the Outlaw. It is just another example of the importance of taking a physical look before purchasing it. I would have been very frustrated to get the Outlaw sight unscene, and then be stuck with it; or have problems with a weak hand spring.
