The Colt Single Action Army/ Peacemaker was a single action revolver designed for the U.S. Government by Colt. The revolvers were adopted as the U.S. Army standard military service revolver until 1892 and were favoured by Early Law Enforcement Officers. The Colt Buntline Special was a long-barreled variant of the Colt Single Action Army revolver, which Stuart N. Lake described in his best-selling but largely fictionalized 1931 biography, Wyatt Earp: Frontier Marshal. According to Lake, the dime novelist Ned Buntline commissioned the production of five Buntline Specials. Lake described them as extra-long Colt Single Action Army revolvers. In 1970 Colt introduced their Peacemaker .22 calibre line of revolvers including their 7 ½” barrel small frame version of the original large frame .45 calibre revolver. This small frame Buntline .22 revolver is side gate loading and has a captive ejector rod. The pistol retains all of its original blue & colour case hardened factory finish. It has undamaged black plastic grips with embossed Colt roundels and embossed American Eagles. It has a 7 ½” barrel with blade foresight grooved cylinder frame rear sight. The pistol measures 13 ¾” overall. The top of the blued barrel has Colt's Hartford CT USA address and the left of the barrel 'Peacemaker Buntline .22'. The pistols serial number is G66050 which dates its manufacture to 1972. Deactivated to UK specification in 2005 the pistol’s blued cylinder is ringed and the pistol cocks and dry fires correctly in single action.
