Pietta Reintroduces the Historic LeMat Revolver – Now Available at MidwayUSA

Pietta Firearms, a world-renowned manufacturer of finely crafted single-action and black powder revolvers, and Midway USA, one of the nation’s premier outdoor retailers have had a successful relationship developing one-of-a-kind, exclusive black powder revolvers for Midway’s loyal customers. Today they proudly announce the return of one of the most iconic sidearms of the 19th century, the LeMat Revolver, now available for purchase at MidwayUSA.

Known as the “Grape Shot Revolver,” the LeMat is instantly recognizable for its innovative dual-barrel design—featuring a standard revolver cylinder above a second barrel chambered in smoothbore. Originally developed in the 1850s and carried by Confederate officers during the American Civil War, the LeMat remains one of the most distinctive firearms of the era.

Three versions of the LeMat Revolver are currently in stock and shipping through MidwayUSA:

  • LeMat Navy Black Powder Revolver, 44 Caliber: View Here
  • LeMat Cavalry Black Powder Revolver, 44 Caliber: View Here
  • LeMat Army Black Powder Revolver, 44 Caliber: View Here
  • LeMat Army Black Powder Revolver, 44 Caliber Old West: COMING SOON

Pietta’s commitment to authentic detail and quality craftsmanship ensures that today’s LeMat Revolvers are faithful reproductions of the original, offering the reliability modern collectors and enthusiasts demand. Four configurations are part of the current production line, including the discontinued “Old West” model. The LeMat’s unique combination of firepower and versatility cemented its place in firearms history. With its nine-shot revolving cylinder and an additional smoothbore barrel for buckshot, the LeMat gave its bearer a distinct battlefield advantage. More details on the series can be found at EMF Company’s LeMat Collection.

The “LeMat” Revolver is in stock now and shipping through MidwayUSA. Don’t miss the chance to own a piece of living history, reimagined with character and built to last.
