Few firearms are more deeply associated with the American west than the Colt Single Action Army revolver. After having been carried and trusted by outlaws, lawmen, settlers, Native Americans, miners, and cowboys for decades, the steadfast old revolvers remained a staple on the frontier which was quickly being "tamed" well into the 20th century. The .44-40 WCF SAA has found a special place in the hearts of Peacemaker collectors. When introduced in 1877, the .44-40 WCF SAA was intended to be used in conjunction with the another legendary Western icon, the Winchester Model 1873 rifle, which used the same cartridge. This Frontier Six Shooter is a true frontier survivor as it was shipped to Indian territory in Oklahoma. As confirmed by the factory letter, the revolver was shipped to Turner Hardware Co., Muscogee Indian Territory on October 27, 1902 with a 4 3/4 inch barrel in .44-40 WCF caliber and blue finish with type of stocks not listed. This was an eight gun shipment. In the 1830s the U.S. government forced the Muscogee Nation to relocate from their ancestral homes in the Southeast to Indian Territory, now located in the state of Oklahoma. This SAA was shipped to Indian Territory just a few years prior to Oklahoma being admitted to the Union in 1907. Around 1882, Clarence William Turner purchased the hardware business J.S. Atkinson (the first hardware business established in the Indian Territory) and continued to operate the business under the name Turner Hardware Co. until Turner sold his interests in 1912. Matching serial numbers appear on frame, trigger guard, and back strap. Includes a holster rig by Don Hume of Miami, Oklahoma. Founded in 1953, Don Hume Leathergoods continues to manufacture quality leather goods.
