Rarity in Caliber

This .44 Remington Magnum caliber offering marks a modern departure from earlier Davidson’s Pietta 1873 exclusives and is a significant addition to the line.

Known for its powerful performance at short to medium ranges, .44 Magnum is a potent caliber in handgun hunting of large game. It also has plenty of support for its viability as a self-defense round.

Exceedingly scarce in recent years, this 100% Italian-made single-action revolver fills a void in the market. Davidson’s introduction of this exclusive to the US market offers a unique blend of history and innovation.

The Pietta 1873 Single-Action 44 Magnum has a suggested retail price of $1,100.00.
