Colt peacemaker bump.
I would add the Colt 1851 Navy. Absolutely beautiful and accurate.
+1.
Umm sorry. The S&W Model 29 is NOT a spaghetti western revolver. True, the same guy that made the westerns used a model 29 in a movie (Clint Eastwood), but this is a uninformed article about guns.
Speaking of iconic Spaghetti Westerns items:
I’d also love to have the musical pocket watch from “For a Few Dollars More”
The only replicas I’ve seen for sale online have all been really cheesy electronic ones.
The Smith & Wesson 29 was introduced in 1955. Why would it ever have been used in a Spaghetti Western?
There isn’t a pistol made that compares to the sheer beauty of the Single Action Army.
The 1911A comes close, but the lines of a Peacemaker are the very definition of “shootin’ iron.”
Agree,in addition to the S&W model 29. The Colt Python was introduced in 1955, the S&W model 1917 was introduced in 1917, the S&W model 10 was introduced in 1899. Other than being six shot revolvers, none of the should be considered
“spaghetti western” guns.
A model 29 is a “spaghetti western” revolver?
Not sure how a Python qualifies as a “spaghetti western” revolver... I would have included the Colt Navy instead, that was a very popular revolver in the “Old West”. It was Rooster Cogburn’s gun, used by Cort in “The Quick and the Dead”, and in a bunch of other westerns as well.
How’d S&W Model 29 get in that mix?
“Am Shooting Journal” seems to be a low-IQ bunch. They are ignorant and seem like a bunch of teenage rednecks.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that. They’re just “Hold Mah Beer And Watch This,” stupid.
Saw a marlin 336 in one that was set in the 1880s
Uninformed firearms blog pimp
That “Peacemaker” isn’t.
It is actually an airgun.
You can easily identify the Brocock ‘cartridges’
