Pietta 1851 Navy Yank Sheriff Features The Pietta 1851 Navy Yank Sheriff is built around a single action striker fire style ignition system paired with an exposed hammer for traditional cocking and firing. Its shortened 4.88 inch octagonal steel barrel trims the overall length of the gun compared to a full length 1851 Navy giving the Sheriff model a faster draw and quicker handling in competition or informal shooting. The six shot cylinder is finished in a deep blued steel to match the barrel giving the gun a uniform classic appearance along its working surfaces. A 1:3 inch twist rate stabilizes the .44 caliber round ball or conical projectile as it travels down the octagon barrel toward the target. A color case hardened frame sets the Navy Yank Sheriff apart visually its swirling blue and amber tones contrasting against the blued barrel and cylinder for a finish that single action collectors and shooters prize. The walnut grip panels provide a warm traditional look while giving the shooter a secure comfortable hold during firing. At 2.2 lbs and 13.2 inches overall the revolver is light and well balanced in the hand consistent with the original design s reputation for fast draw and light recoil. For cowboy action shooters and black powder enthusiasts who want a historically styled sheriff s model revolver the Pietta 1851 Navy Yank Sheriff delivers authentic looks with dependable single action performance.
