I don't like movie theaters and no media player in the house except a TV with an antenna in the attic so I've never seen the original or the remake. Spunds like it might be a good one to see if I can ever figure out how to access the Netflix etc I pay for each month!

If you ever visit NC, you can come here and watch it while holding the replica.

No way Steve! Next to John Taffin and Hamilton Bowen, YOU have cost me more money on guns than anyone else in the world! There is no way on God's green earth I am handling that gun! Besides, it doesn't have a bisley hammer

A beauty! Like Craig, I love the movie and have watched it a bunch. That would be a nice revolver to have in any collection.

Besides, it doesn't have a bisley hammer LOL. I didn't mean it like that. Was pure hospitality I was offering. After we watched the movie, I'd take you to my buddy's range and let you shoot the Hank Williams Jr. TLA!

Nope, after having and shooting Bill Grover's personal Border Special and the only stainless 5 shot 45 Colt Improved #5 along with the banded barrel 6 shot 45 Colt Improved #5, Bocephus' TLA doesn't hold that much allure for me. Once again, mainly thanks to you!

There was a episode of “American Guns” a few years back where Rich Wyatt was tasked to make a SA army from a solid block is steel for a preacher. It was supposed to be a $10k+ gun or something like that. The video showed him taking a Bridgeport and starting to mill on a hunk of barstock and low and behold at the end of the show he had this perfect SAA with Turnbull CCH that was an exact replica of “The Hand of God” gun from 3:10 to Yuma. They shot it and had all sorts of piro explosive targets that kept blowing up as they shot after flying into the shooting range in a helicopter.
Funny it was right at the filming time that Turnbull had released his run of them and Rich’s shop never offered that model for sale even though they certainly would have had a great lead into it for production if he could really build them.
Also funny that 6-12 months later his shop closed and he went to jail for tax evasion and can’t own firearms anymore either. That show was so bad if you actually know guns. I knew Rich just a little bit, took my carry class from him but never bought anything from his shop since he was always silly expensive on everything.

Beautiful Turnbull/USFA revolver and holster acquisition! Considering the fit & finish of the revolver, the custom one-piece stocks with inlay, the gorgeous full-carved matching holster and the documentation, I believe that you made an outstanding purchase at a good price!
Congratulations! You will be proud that you bought this package for as long as you own it.
