According to the America Remembers Website: For this Tribute, we obtained a limited number of historic Colt revolvers. These revolvers were originally acquired by John Bianchi’s Frontier Museum and subsequently were acquired by the Autry Museum of Western Heritage in 1985. The revolvers were never displayed at the Autry Museum but were kept in storage until they were acquired by a firearms dealer. The revolver features a 7 1/2" barrel and the unique .44 Special caliber. The Tribute is a handsomely decorated Colt Single Action Army Revolver, with artwork honoring six of the most revered and respected Indian leaders in American history featured on the cylinder – Sitting Bull, Gall, Geronimo, Stand Watie, Red Cloud, and Chief Joseph. The barrel is decorated with Indian motifs along with the name of the Tribute. The back strap features Indian motifs and the individual edition number inside the outline of an arrowhead. The recoil shield features the head of a majestic buffalo, a symbolic image of the western frontier and an integral part of the culture of American Indians. Included with each Tribute is a specially designed case to protect and display this historic Tribute to six legendary American Indian leaders.

Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Single Action Army (SAA), also known as the Colt .45 or Colt Peacemaker, is an iconic revolver that has become a symbol of the American West since its introduction in 1873 by Samuel Colt. Developed to meet the U.S. Army's demand for a reliable sidearm, its single-action mechanism required the hammer to be manually cocked before firing, providing faster, more reliable shots suitable for both military and civilian use. The SAA was adopted by the Army and became standard issue during the Indian Wars, praised for its significant stopping power and durability. Beyond military applications, it gained immense popularity among cowboys, lawmen, and outlaws, with associations to famous figures like Wyatt Earp and Billy the Kid, solidifying its status as a cultural icon. Over the years, the Colt SAA has seen various calibers and designs, with production briefly halting during World War II before resuming in modern times, preserving its classic look. Today, it remains a celebrated firearm, featured in countless films and books, and is highly valued by collectors and enthusiasts alike, embodying a unique blend of history, functionality, and cultural significance.
