Colt 45 peacemaker pistol FAR WEST USA 1886

Revolver reproduction cal. 45 made of metal and wood with loading simulator and firing mechanism and rotating drum.

The Peacemaker revolver, also known as the single-action Army (ASA), was designed by Samuel Colt in 1873 and was produced with different barrel lengths: the short 4.75-inch version, the longer forms, 5.5 and 7.5 inches, or the impressive 12-inch 'Buntline Special'.

This weapon was initially used by the US Army. However, within a few years most Americans were one of these guns. That ammunition used with the same Winchester M1873 calibre rifle helped its popularity as a sidearm in the American Old West in the late 19th century.
