A question for anyone who might know.

Is there a difference in framesize and/or grip form between Cattleman?

We tried the Cattleman Gunfigter and the Cattleman OM Charcoal Blue yesterday and the Cattleman seemed to be a tighter fit bewtween the pistol grip and the trigger guard. My wife's knuckle rubbed on the trigger guard on the Gunfighter but not the OM where there was plenty of space. My thinking is that it had to do with the type of grip but wanted to see if anyone of this forum had any ideas

I think grip-form is different.

Looking closely at the images available on Uberti's site, it does look as if the Gunfighter has a thicker, more edge-rounded-off grip.

My Cattleman NM has a more swept-back grip; thicker at the back and narrower at the front (kinda like an egg shape, sorta).

It's hard to tell with pictures though.

I tried a pearl handled one at a store and it wasn't for me. Nothing wrong with it, it just didn't feel right in my hand.
