Return To Lonesome Dove (1993)

Return To Lonesome Dove is the 1993 sequel miniseries to 1989's groundbreaking Lonesome Dove. The sequel uses characters created by Larry McMurtry in the original novel, but is a completely new story. In this miniseries, Jon Voight took over the role of Captain Woodrow Call (original miniseries star Tommy Lee Jones was busy filming The Fugitive at the time) and Barbara Hershey took over the role of Clara Allen (replacing Anjelica Huston). Reprising their roles from the original miniseries were Rick Schroder as Newt Dobbs, Timothy Scott as Pea Eye Parker, Barry Tubb as Jasper Fant and Chris Cooper as July Johnson.


The following weapons were used in the miniseries Return To Lonesome Dove:


Handguns

Colt 1873 SAA

The Colt Single Action Army is given a predominant role throughout the mini-series, but other makes and models do make appearances. Numerous characters use the Colt SAA.

Colt 1877 Thunderer

Gregor Dunnigan (Oliver Reed) carries a nickel plated short barreled Colt 1877 Thunderer without the ejecter rod. It appears that his model has the 3.5" barrel. It also appears to be the slighty larger 1877 "Thunderer" in .41 Colt. It would be an appropriate revolver for a man of his status to carry. The story takes place in 1878, but being a wealthy man Gregor would be able to afford the very latest revolver from Colt.
