A Brief History of the Buntline Special:
The M1873 Buntline Special is a variant of the Colt Single Action Army revolver, often called “The Peacemaker.” The Buntline gained fame through tales of dime novelist Ned Buntline, who supposedly gifted the long-barreled revolvers to notable lawmen like Wyatt Earp. While the historical accuracy of this story is debated, the Buntline Special has firmly embedded itself in Western folklore, thanks to its dramatic appearance and association with the larger-than-life characters of the frontier.
This revolver’s distinctive long barrel provided improved accuracy, making it favored by those who needed precision in their line of work. Whether fact or legend, the Buntline Special remains a symbol of the grit and grandeur of the American West.
