Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
No Colt revolver has earned greater fame than the Single Action Army; The Peacemaker. In design and performance, in line and form...no more sculptural and practical Colt has ever been created. Movies are constantly reminders of this equalizer's role in winning the West. Who better to represent the history of this firearm than the Duke himself? John Wayne is the 'all-American cowboy', and the sidearm that served him well in his films now honors his legacy.
In the minds of a nation, John Wayne is remembered in many ways. To some, he's Hondo, McLintock, and the legendary Rooster Cogburn. To others, he's simply "Duke." But to everyone, he represents a hero. One of the greatest of them all.
John Wayne's ability to handle a gun on-screen helped tame the West. Off-screen, he was a skilled marksman who used and collected handguns and rifles. In keeping with this American tradition, Colt and the Wayne family are proud to introduce "The Duke." A limited edition, 22 caliber single action frontier revolver.
Rugged and handsome, this special edition can be acquired as a collector's item. But, like every Colt, it's a working gun. Use it. Take it to the range. It features a 4.25" blued barrel, handsomely etched with the sterling silver plated inscription "John Wayne, The Duke." Each gun features the famous Colt color case-hardened frame, an adjustable rear sight, and a unique blade front sight, in keeping with the original frontier peacemaker. Its deep blue finish is accented by a nickel ejector rod, trigger, and hammer.
Contents:
This example will ship with the original cardboard shipping box, original factory matching box, wooden Colt "The Duke" presentation case with red velvet lining, original receipts, and paperwork seen pictured above! The condition is no surprise being New Old Stock, showing no evidence of consumer use or handling whatsoever!
Return Policy:
We gladly offer a 3-day unfired inspection policy from the time that the firearm is delivered to your FFL. Refunds are available for all qualifying orders.
