The Outlaw Josey Wales (1975)
The Outlaw Josey Wales (1975)
Clint Eastwood as Josey Wales
Italian Colt Walker - .44 caliber
This gun, and the similar Walker used in True Grit, were both used
in The Outlaw Josey Wales by Clint Eastwood. Both
revolvers are Italian reproductions and have been converted to fire
five-in-one blanks for film use. At some point in its rental
history a loading lever catch similar to those used on Dragoon
revolvers was added to the gun. The poster for this film featured
an enraged Josey Wales holding both revolvers.
