==Colt 1860 Army== | |||
Cullen Bohannon ([[Anson Mount]]) carries a [[Colt 1860 Army]] revolver as his sidearm after the pilot.The 1860 was the most common handgun in the United States at the time, most had a brass trigger guard (see photo), they were not manufactured with a brass frame like the Griswold above. Several other characters carry and use the [[Colt 1860 Army]] revolver throughout the season, including Elam Ferguson ([[Common]]).

The brass framed pistol Bohannon uses in the opening episode is neither an 1860 nor a Griswold but is an amalgam reproduction that was likely used as a stop gap piece for filming. | |||
