The Gunfighter Defender is a perfect combination of the original Gunfighter features and the favorite lowered Runnin' Iron(R) hammer. Taylor's installed the favorite 1860 Army grip onto the new model frame cattleman to accommodate the larger hand shooter. The Army grip is longer and slightly wider than the smaller Navy grip that is usually found on 1873 single action models. This checkered model features a case hardened forged steel frame, blued steel parts, lowered hammer spur, and a checkered Army Size walnut grip.
