Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Walker, also known as the Walker Colt, is a single-action revolver with a revolving cylinder holding six charges of black powder behind six bullets, typically .44 caliber lead balls. It was designed in 1846 by Samuel Colt, an American firearms inventor, based on the specifications of Captain Samuel Hamilton Walker. The Colt Walker was created in the mid-1840s through a collaboration between Texas Ranger Captain Samuel Hamilton Walker (1817–1847) and American firearms inventor Samuel Colt (1814–1862), building upon the earlier Colt Paterson design. Walker sought a handgun that was extremely powerful at close range. Samuel Walker carried two of his namesake revolvers in the Mexican–American War. He was killed in battle the same year his famous handgun was invented, in 1847, shortly after he had received them. The original 1847 Walker Black Powder Revolvers are highly sought after by collectors, with only 1,100 produced. These 44 caliber revolvers have a massive 4+ pound steel frame and are often referred to as the grand-daddy of revolvers.
