PRESCOTT, Ariz. – Davidson’s, one of the nation’s top firearms wholesalers, has teamed with Pietta, Italy, to create three new Exclusive offerings.
Pietta is known worldwide for their authentic historical firearms reproductions. Davidson’s is pleased to partner with an Italian firearms company that has such a rich history and looks forward to continuing the relationship into the future.
Following on the success of Davidson’s Exclusive single-action 1873 revolvers made available in June of 2020, Davidson’s now offers two more variants of the 1873 Western, These new Davidson’s Exclusives are convertible models in that each come with two cylinders – one chambered in 45 Colt and one in 45 AP. Offered in a 4.75” and a 5.5” barrel, they both feature a deep blued finish on the frame, cylinder, and barrel. The trigger guard, front strap, and back strap are a high-polished brass.
The sights are the open fixed type with a notch at rear and a bladed front. These 1873 models feature the traditional four-click hammer.
The companion piece to these new single-actions is the 1878 Double Barrel Deluxe Coach side-by-side shotgun. Chambered in 12 gauge, it features 20” barrels, walnut stock, 2.75” chamber, color case-hardened receiver, fixed cylinder choke, bead sight, double trigger, and double working external hammers.
“I am really excited to see the first shipment of our new Exclusives from Pietta have arrived”, said Marshall King, Davidson’s buyer. “I’m always impressed when a manufacturer can ‘wow’ you with fit, finish, and attention to detail and our partners at Pietta hit it out of the park with these new Exclusives.”
All of these Davidson’s Exclusives have been received in inventory and are shipping now to dealers with more inventory on the way from Pietta.
