Notes
Model number RS410. Like all traditional single-action Army revolvers, it is safest carried with the hammer down on an empty chamber (load five, carry five). The finger-grooved grip material had to be specially remade by Cimarron as it had not been produced for roughly 50 years.
Background
The revolver honors Rooster Cogburn, the one-eyed, hard-drinking U.S. Marshal played by John Wayne in 'True Grit' (1969). The original screen gun inspiration came from the Cimarron Firearms collection, and the yellowed 'ivory' finger-grooved grip recreates the look of Wayne's on-screen Colt.
