Uberti 1873 Single Action Cattleman Buntline 45 (Long) Colt 18in Blued Revolver – 6 Rounds – In 1873, Colt’s single-action Army (SAA) revolver became the Army’s standard sidearm. Cavalry troopers were armed with the new revolvers. Lawmen and outlaws alike were quick to adopt the handy new 6-shooter which earned the nickname “Peacemaker.” Dime novelist Ned Buntline presented special Colt revolvers with long barrels to Wyatt Earp and other Old West celebrities, which became known as “Buntline Specials.” The Colt Buntline 1873 Single-Action target revolver has become one of the icons of the Old West. Only 31 of the original Buntline revolvers were ever produced, and only 18 of those are around today.
