Cimarron's new American model!

Unless I missed it somewhere I don't see the American Model at Cimarron's booth for the SHOT Show. Abilene, what gives?

Beats me.  This is my 2nd year of not going to Shot Show, so I'm out of the loop on some stuff.  I see A.D.Texaz or Shootin' Steele at Texican Ranger matches and ask them.

A nickel plated one would be sweet

Well, here it is nickel plated AND engraved!!      Go to the 1:50 mark. As well he calls it a "Schofield", but it's the new American Model:

From what I can see in the video... I'm very impressed with what has been done with this new S&W brake top revolver. I would feel much better about investing in this revolver now that I have seen this.
I would not worry too much about it being called a 'Schofield", after all, many Americans call any and every large frame "type" S&W brake top revolver a "Schofield"! (bad on US)

FCK,

Do you know if the statement of being the "1st Model American" is in respect to the first model to be reproduced of this type S&W Revolver, or that they are actually reproducing a Model # 3 1st Model American?
Thanks!

Like all repros it is not going to be a perfect "clone" of an original I am sure. We will have to wait & see when one gets into the hands of a competent reviewer who can do a SxS with an original (Venturino, Chicoine, etc.). Regardless, it will be the ONLY clone of one ever made. Your only other option is buying/shooting an original.

This Uberti version does have the smaller trigger boss imitating the 1st Model American "flat bottom". Since Uberti doesn't use recoil plates on any clone that will be correct for this model as that didn't come into being until later per the Russians.

At least Cimarron/Uberti is trying to please us in this time of a dwindling CAS market that is a shell of what it was in 2000.

I too, am looking forward to this coming out. I do want to point out one thing regarding the "purity" of the lengthening of the cylinder. There is a large majority of shooters out there who will never consider shooting black powder, so the decision to make it longer to accept today's rounds vs the ability to run on bp is good business, and allows us to shoot these guns today.

So, we're now half way thru July, anyone seen one of these yet?

[Abilene]

Last time I talked to one of the Cimarron guys, he told me it was probably going to be next year.

[The Pathfinder]

Ok, gives my kids more time to raise the money so I don't have to pay for my own retirement present.

Hey, I can dream can't I?

[nativeshootist]

But that's what they said last year

[willy]

Gave Cimarron a call last week and was told that the only hold up was getting the ok from the ATF to bring them into the country..They figure they will be on the shelves by June starting with the 45colt



Got my name on the list ...Still sitting here by the phone.

[willy]

ANNNNNNND ,,,still waiting..

[Fox Creek Kid]

Here she is!! 

[Abilene]

Dang, at least wipe the fingerprints off the gun!   

[willy]

That video is from March 2019,,,I talked to Cimarron and they said they would be here by June 2019,,Put my name on a list,,,Still waiting.

Just another 60 days    ...I've been down that rabbit hole...

and another 60,  and another etc.   obviously they exist , Uberti would love to see the profit roll in as would Cimarron....

Probably sitting in limbo...betwixt  US customs  , Tariffs ,  and Feds Regulations  yada yada

I'd like one but my Jets have cooled some in the wait
