This is a Texas shipped example of the legendary Peacemaker chambered in the iconic .45 LC caliber. The SAA is one of the most iconic firearms of the American west, and it, alongside the Winchester Model 1873, are often cited as the "guns that won the west". The accompanying factory letter states the revolver was shipped on December 17, 1924 to famed Fort Worth, Texas, retailer Wolf & Klar with a 4 3/4 inch barrel in .45 caliber, nickel plating, and type of stocks not listed. This was a five gun shipment. Wolf & Klar was a prominent hardware, jewelry, and gun store that attracted Texas outlaws and lawmen among others.
