Taylors and Company S&W Model 3 Schofield
Taking a look at the Taylors and Company S&W Model 3 Schofield, case color hardened and fire blued. A replica made by Uberti in Italy, while not an authentic finish for this firearm, it is stunningly beautiful in my estimation. Markings are correct for the most part (same as my 5" version). Taylors really knocked it out of the park with this version.
As with everything that I review and bring to my channel, I am not compensated by any person or company for the purposes of a favorable review. I purchased this firearm with my own money, and as such, my opinion is based on something that is mine.
Editing note. I realize that I said Western Union when describing the 5" because I brain farted, it's actually Wells Fargo. I didn't catch the error until well after post production and upload.

Love the No.3 series S&W revolvers. Great videos, and I like this content. Please keep it up!
Great video! Thanks for sharing! Absolutely love my Taylor’s & Co. Schofield in nickel with pearl grips! Just ordered a 5” barrel fully engraved Schofield… The Schofield is my preferred handgun, the looks, design, fit, finish, function, etc…everything spectacular! …and Taylor’s & Co. make it easy! Great folks!!
This video helped push me into ordering the new Uberti Hardin. 7” 45C with same case hardened/charcoal blue finish but synthetic bison horn grips. It’s a stunningly gorgeous gun
Thank You M.O., just wanted to thank You for the Time and Money you spent bringing us this Beautful Handgun

My FAVORITE Revolver, Hands Down!
From the Uberti Lawmen & Outlaws series Hardin model Schofield model#3. The nicest looking gun of that series line up.
Why did the make these so damn pretty? They're practically FORCING money out of me. T_T
The .45 Colt casing was the reason why not many pistols & none of the Winchester rifles were chambered. the casing's rim was very small (under .009 inch) ejectors torn them up. Also the casing was copper, too soft it deformed in some firearms. This design wasn't changed until near 1900. Colt had no problem with the rim but the ejector rod was needed to clear a case. S&W made matters worst with chambering in .45 American which was shorter than a .45 colt ( thus the name "Long Colt"). The .44-40 had brass cases, more reliable in a firearm's workings & was about the same ballistics. My favorite is a Schofield with a 5" barrel & a Pearl handle. 5" barrels with Wells Fargo issue to their agents. I used to have a Ruger Blackhawk but was never that comfortable with the plow grip. Nice video!
Ive been dying to get this, probably the most beautiful revolver ive ever seen
Drop dead gorgeous sixgun
Would you part way with those Ivory grips? If so what would you want for them?
Just got the blued 7 inch with pearl white grips. 45colt.
Beautyful pistol. It's definitely on my gotta have it short list.....
A shame Smith and Wesson were too stubborn to allow the #3 to be chambered in .45 colt. If they had we’d probably all be talking about the Schofield as the gun that won the west rather than the SAA.
Ok, I've been looking at these revolvers and I can't make up my mind on which one to get. Could yall please help me out? The Schofield, the Smith and wesson Russian, the frontier. All look very similar.

They are all essentially the same gun. Minor diffences in the grip and lock is all. As to which one? Personal preference.
I like your video, brother. I would like to offer you a piece of advice. If you turn the volume on your camera all of the way down then it'll play back louder and without muffling.
Great video. I would love to see a follow up in a few weeks or months to know how the pistol is holding up. Mechanically and especially that fire blue finish.

It'll probably be next summer before I shoot it a bunch. Other than occasionally testing it with cowboy loads at an indoor range. I prefer to shoot these old guns with black powder loads, and it's deer season. I don't shoot much on the farm in the winter as a courtesy to my neighbors. Once spring rolls around, I'll be back out regularly.

Enjoyed both your Schofield videos, thanks. Wanna trade that 5" for a 7" Cimarron? That way you would have a matched pair!

Tempting, but my cross draw holster was made for the 5". I do love the longer barrel look better though, personally.
Do they make any of these in 357Mag?

S&W revolvers where safe to load all chambers as they had rebounding hammers!

Pretty sure that's a no. S&W made a modern reissue/reproduction of the model 3 that had a transfer bar, but the original design had no such safety.

S&W thought they had it made coming up with the schofield 45 round they thought they were going to outfit the whole army only problem was the army only needed 3000 guns when incombatability was realized the got rid of the guns
Want this real bad in a 3.5" .45
I don't agree. The ivory grips look nicest on a dark body to the gun.
You tend to talk to low and mumble. Otherwise, good info. Good video
