	The other firearm that makes a frequent appearance is the [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun]] . It's interesting that Marshal Troop ([[John Russell]]) tends to favor the shotgun over the Winchester while Deputy McKay ([[Peter Brown]]) goes with the Winchester 1892. While both characters go to their Colts on a fairly ~~frequnt~~ basis (as befitting a 1950's western) they use the rifle and shotgun fairly often as well.
