Single Action Army "Artillery"
Bret Maverick (Mel Gibson ) carries a Single Action Army "Artillery" model with a five inch barrel as his sidearm. Maverick evidently keeps it with all six loaded, as opposed to many actual Old West gunfighters, evident in the scene in which Annabelle Bransford (Jodie Foster ) accidentally discharges his revolver when she falls on his holster and when Maverick tells her and Coop that he has "six bullets" when facing off against the bandits (although he fires many more than six shots without reloading). actually he fired it six times and picked up another gun.
