I would add the Colt 1851 Navy. Absolutely beautiful and accurate.

Speaking of spaghetti Westerns,those guns remind me of one of the greatest movie theme songs of all,and Clint Eastwood doing what he did best,

There is much to be said for a high-quality, well-maintained, and classic revolver.

A magazine that would identify a S&W Model 29 as a part of the wild west is a magazine that isn't worth reading.

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.”

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?

It’s nice to see that someone who know little or nothing about firearms still appreciates and posts pretty gun porn pictures.
Most of those revolvers were never used in a spaghetti western, and the group photo seems to be a mystery to the author.
Thanks for the pics.
