The Uberti 1875 No. 3 2nd Model Top Break Revolver U348578 is a masterful reproduction of the historic Schofield cavalry revolver. Chambered in .38 Special with a 7″ barrel, this revolver perfectly blends period-accurate design with modern reliability, making it an excellent choice for collectors, reenactors, and cowboy action shooters.

Historical Background

Designed by Major George Schofield as a cavalry pistol, the Top Break design allowed fast, one-handed reloading of all six cartridges while mounted. While the U.S. Cavalry was slow to adopt it, famous figures like Jesse James, John Wesley Hardin, and Wild Bill Hickok valued the revolver’s fast-reloading capability. After thorough trials, the U.S. Army purchased 3,000 Top Breaks with an improved top latch, but it was the Russian government that truly embraced this innovative sidearm, ordering over 41,000 units with slight modifications.

Design and Features

The U348578 features a two-piece walnut stock for durability and a classic aesthetic. The blued finish ensures long-lasting performance and a historically accurate look. True to the original design, the revolver includes the distinctive trigger spur, lanyard ring, and authentic styling cues. It is part of Uberti’s faithful reproduction of the original Schofield Top Break, ideal for display, shooting, and reenactments.
