Description: In 1836, Samuel Colt changed the face of warfare with the production of the first of a series of iconic and influential single - action revolvers including the .44 - calibre Colt Walker and the seminal .45 - calibre Colt Single Action Army which remains in production today. These weapons shifted the role of the pistol from single - shot weapon of last resort to a practical and powerful sidearm that gave the user the ability to defend himself once his primary armament was discharged. It transformed cavalry tactics and relegated the sword to a largely ceremonial role in many armies. Featuring full - colour artwork expert analysis and gripping first - hand accounts this is the absorbing story of Colt's family of single - action revolvers covering their origins development use and lasting impact on the modern world.
