This unique .44 caliber Schofield is allegedly the only surviving gun from the West’s most famous gunfight: The O.K. Corral. This non-firing replica of the famous .44 caliber Schofield owned by Wyatt Earp is displayed in a a handsome wood shadow box with identification plaque and locks neatly into form fitting foam to allow for table-top or wall-display. Details overlooked in other replicas are not missed in this re-creation, such as a tiny notch in front of the trigger, a subtle short gauge on the barrel, and a missing screw on the butt plate. Every detail of this replica is exactly according to the original.
This elaborately engraved reproduction is sheathed in nickel plate and carries a rugged elegance befitting a professional gambler and gunfighter of the Western Frontier. This piece will be available as of February, 2008.
A master engraver has painstakingly matched every fine line and flourish of the this polished, nickel-plated, antique replica gun’s unique scrollwork – on the barrel, cylinder, hammer, frame, backstrap and triggerguard. With the hammer at half-cock, you can “break” the gun open to reload, just as they did in the old days. Thumb up the hatch, swing the frame down on its hinge, and the shell-extractor glides out from the cylinder…retracting again when the gun is fully open. The 8” barrel worked to the advantage of a marksman, dampening muzzle kick and enhancing accuracy. For fast reloads, the entire frame swings down, revealing all six chambers.
