The Taylors & Company Devil Anse .45 LC revolver is a single-action sixgun built for shooters who appreciate Old West aesthetics with authentic period handling. Named for the legendary Hatfield-McCoy feud, this case-hardened .45 LC revolver strikes an immediate visual statement: the contrast between its deep blue finish, colorful case-hardened hammer, and matte black wood grips gives it real character that stands out in any collection or on the range. If you're drawn to classic single-action revolvers for Cowboy Action Shooting, hunting, or serious wheelgun appreciation, the Devil Anse delivers both looks and function.

At 4.75 inches, the barrel hits the sweet spot between controlability and sight radius—long enough to shoot straight, compact enough to handle smoothly in the holster. The fixed front blade sight and rear frame notch are period-correct and proven; they work fine for deliberate shooting at reasonable distances. At 2.43 pounds, it points naturally and doesn't fatigue your hand or hip over a long shooting session. Six rounds of .45 LC give you the power and reliability that made single actions legendary.

Build quality here reflects Taylors & Company's reputation: the forged steel frame and blued finish are honest work, not corners cut. Whether you're running Cowboy Action matches, plinking, or building a Western-themed collection, this gun won't embarrass you. The matte black grip feels good in your hand and the case-hardened hammer adds that final authentic touch. This is a revolver that rewards good technique and clean ammunition.

The .45 LC with a 4.75-inch barrel is adequate for hunting medium game and varmints at moderate distances. Its effectiveness depends on shot placement, ammunition choice, and hunting discipline. It's not suited for long-range hunting.
