Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The G series Peacemaker .22 and New Frontier .22 revolvers were introduced in 1970, and the first production serial number was G10001. These guns were a major change in Colt's .22 single-action revolver line. They resembled the full-size Single Action Army revolvers more because the receivers and loading gates were made of steel and were case-hardened in colors. Grip frames were made of aluminum alloy with a blue finish. The Peacemaker .22 had fixed sights like the previous Frontier Scouts, but the New Frontier .22 used a ramped front sight and the same adjustable Accro rear sight that was used on many other Colt handguns at the time. All revolvers were marked ".22" on the barrels but were shipped either with the .22 LR cylinder alone or in combinations with .22 LR and .22 Magnum cylinders. (No .22 Magnum-only G series revolvers were produced.) Barrel lengths were initially 4 3/4 inches (later 4.4 inches), 6 inches, and 7 1/2 inches (the Buntline), and muzzles were always finished with a rounded crown.

Barrel lengths were initially 4 3/4 inches (later 4.4 inches), 6 inches, and 7 1/2 inches (the Buntline), and muzzles were always finished with a rounded crown.
The .22 Magnum cylinders provided with the dual cylinder revolvers were initially fluted like the earlier Scout cylinders, but in mid-1971 the design was changed to an unfluted Magnum cylinder. The 4 3/4 inch barreled revolvers were only made for about the first year or so of production. Then the barrels were shortened to 4.4 inches. A lot of confusion exists around the short barrel length, primarily because Colt was very inconsistent about the barrel marking on the box labels. Many 4.4-inch barreled guns were shipped with labels stating 4 3/4 inches. This problem overlapped with the later L and GS series revolvers. The Peacemaker .22 with the true 4 3/4 inch barrel has become quite a sought-after variation because of the popularity of this revolver model and the rather limited production.
