That 9.5” long-barreled 22 is a Colt Buntline Scout. Of course some Buntline purists think to deserve the name a revolver should have at least a 12-inch tube but Colt even used “Buntline” for some of their 7.5 inch Frontiers.

That Colt sure is fun though.

Yeah, but most people think that Buntline means a 12 inch barrel. Wyatt Earp and all that you know. After I looked at your picture again I knew that was not a Ruger, why I thought it was in the first place is because I am a Ruger kind of guy and always think Ruger at first when I see a wheel gun that looks similar.
