Open Range: Charlie Waite's gun?

[darthwhitey]

I know it was a long barreled Colt with no front site.

Open Range Rig, Kevin Costner as Charlie Waite worn this type of Rig in the movie, Open Range, Historically Accurate Depiction of Late Cattle Drive Era Holster and Cartridge Belt Rig, Will Ghormley - Maker, Quality Reproduction, Old West Cowboy Gear

I'm looking for a nice replica. Id prefer non-firing.

Anybody have any ideas?

Thanks

Brad

Thanks!

So it's a Colt SAA (Single Action Army) "Calvary" model with 7.5" barrell.

I wonder who supplied the guns for the film?

I collect Antique firearms and Replicas and I believe most used in the movie were made by Uberti. Uberti Single-Action 1873 Cattleman

A company called "Great Western" at one time supplied most all of the Hollywood Old West Firearms for the Movies and TV but they folded in the mid 1990's and all of their stock was sold off. Not sure now what company is supplying Hollywood with all of it's Old West Firepower these days.

Perhaps someone here on the board may know...
