And Remington.

The percussion Remington was superior to the Colt counterpart in my opinion: top strap.

There were also British and European makes to be found. The Wild West was, after all, open to all, and there were plenty of expatriate cowboys.

The film, Silverado, was made by a true aficionado of Westerns, Lawrence Kasdan, and, like a Tom Selleck vehicle, was remarkable for its authenticity.

As I recall, the British character played by John Cleese, had a Webley (or some such): nice touch. Then, of course, there were the two beautiful .44 Rimfire Henrys.
