The "Smith & Wesson" revolver????!!!!!!!
Robert Ford used a .44 caliber Colt SAA "Peacemaker" revolver with a 7 12" barrel to shoot Jesse James and it was not nickel-plated.

Robert Ford used a .44 caliber Colt SAA "Peacemaker"Are you sure? There's a hell of a lot of difference between the Colt SAA and the Smith and Wesson 1st Model American or the 3rd Model Russian .44's.

Robert Ford used a .44 caliber Colt SAA "Peacemaker" revolver...I think you're right. I have a book at home that shows Ford holding a Colt "Frontier Model" (as they were originaly called) and the caption says that it was the revolvwer used to kill James.
