Cavalry Officers Colt .45 Revolver DescriptionThis is a fully detailed replica of the famed Colt .45 (Cavalry) Peacemaker 1873 pattern, .45 caliber six-gun with a 7½" barrel. Favoured sidearm of U.S. Cavalry officers during Indian Wars. This Nickel plated Colt, was a status symbol for elitist Cavalry officers. This non-firing version has a functional lock mechanism, with a revolving cylinder and working ejector system. Also available in a Gunmetal finish. HistoryThe Colt Single-Action Army Revolver was produced in several forms and many calibers from 1872 to 1940, with production totaling about 350,000 pieces. As its introduction coincided with the settlement of the "Wild" West, the names "Peacemaker" and "Frontier Six-Shooter" were popularized. Used by legends like Buffalo Bill Cody, Wild Bill Hickok, Pat Garrett and Bat Masterson it was also the weapon of choice for settlers in the West during the late 19th century. The Cavalry Model's relatively long barrel provided excellent accuracy in capable hands. Pricing
