Denix (out of Spain) manufacturers this extremely detailed pistol so much so, it includes a supervision warning label. Almost functionally identical to the real thing with t exception of the cylinder bind up in both directions regardless of hammer position or dry firing (which they do not recommend). Pronounceable 2 position click (not four} so you can get familiar with SAA revolvers. Main issue is the hardware holding this together. The center screw on the left side of frame easily falls out getting lost with less than 50 draw back of the hammer. Be mindful of were it ends up as it is black, pointy, and sharp and worst of all, no replacement. I ended up at Home Depot getting a mini bag full of No.6, 3/4 length round head, flat tip sheet metal screws; painted the tip black since no warranty or replacement was offered. The wood grip screw will also loosen over time, just make small gradual turns to tighten is all you need. If you crank down on it, say good bye to the grips. Same goes for the side plate screw when reinstalling to tight and it's over. Overall, it's weighty, the antique finish is excellent and many will think it's the real thing up close or far away, especially holster exposing the real natural wood grips. There are plenty of youtube videos covering the Denix products.

Nice grip finish but the wood slides out of place a bit. Besides the looseness and misalignment pretty sturdy.

I could not believe the work and craftsmanship that went into this replica pistol. Very very happy with it

I love it. Good weight and feel.

Looks and feel like the real thing.

I bought 2, I am very happy with this purchase, these are not light weight, they have the look and feel of the real thing..

LUV IT!!! Perfect for my purpose. I just became interested in the art of, " GUN TWRILLING " Purchased 1st gun, liked the feel & size, then purchased 2nd gun 5 days later. These guns are close to the real thing as far as weight and balance. I prefer to use REPLICAS to practice with, as opposed to the REAL McCOY! The function and moving parts are close enough for EXHIBITION & DISPLAY. LOTS OF FUN!!

This thing weighs a ton. VERY solid. Looks menacing. Makes me look like a Old West Marshal! Luckily... that's what I was going for!!!!!! Pair this w/ the leather holster I bought and BAM! instant success!

Looks and feels authentic

This gun is so realistic! Very heavy and well made! The holster I purchased to go with it was also great! I even had someone in Ft. Worth Cowtown stop me (in between my performances) and comment about how nice it was!! I have loved everything purchased from Historical Emporium. Prices might seem high at first but the quality is so great...You will only have to purchase once (should last forever)

People ask if it is real. I get some funny looks sometimes at the range when volunteering as an R.O. for a kid outreach. The tolerances are a little loose, but, hey, it's just a toy. It's got some real weight behind it that gives you the feel of the real thing.

Obviously not the real thing but close enough to realistic to work for my purposes; and it is only a replica. Probably a bit pricey for the quality.

I own a pair of genuine Colt Peacemakers. I obtained this for festivals to not have to bring mine out so often. I was disappointed with the craftsmanship. The trigger assembly is very loose, as though it will fall apart while handling. The barrel is very rough in rotating, and gets hung up. Dry firing this is just not a good idea. If you have ever shot a six shooter, then you know that the way this feels while dry firing is scary, as though the assembly will crumble. The finish on the metal is nice. The grips are uneven in the way they meet the metal stock. There is uneven overlap of the grips. The spring loaded pushrod is tight and fights you, giving rise to the idea it might break as well. Overall, this is fairly shoddy. If you want to put it on a wall and never touch it, it is nice to look at. If you want to holster and draw it on a regular basis for use in say, a re-enactment, I caution you on this. I am not sure it will hold up.

I purchased this item to go with a .44/.45 cal gun belt. It fit the belt beautifully. The finish on the revolver was great. It looked as if it were used regularly on the frontier. The revolver has a good weight, it looks and feels real. A must have piece for a period/reenactment set-up.

its a nice replica, good weight, nice to practice handling without scratching your real Peacemaker.

The pistol is awesome. The only question I have is the finish that appears to have "distress" marks in the metal. If the finish should be clear and polished (such as a chrome bumper on a car) please let me know.

Historical Emporium delivers the best product at a fair price, faster than I would have ever imagined. The 1873 Colt Peacemaker is a fine piece of craftsmanship, perfect for your best western attire or to grace any wall. I couldn't be happier with the selection. I am looking forward to many more guns to add to my collection.

It was much more realistic than I expected. The weight was consistent with the actual weapon and all of the working parts were just as they should be. I was very impressed.

The 1873 Colt Peacemaker Pistol Replica - Nickel 001735 is one beautiful replica. Out of all the purchases I had made online, this was the best I have every purchased. Historical Emporium has the best product and a wonderful customer service attitude. It was so good that I bought a second Replica and hope it gets here soon.

Good quality replica.

A bit to get used to,weight wise. But all in all a nice piece to practice with.

Outstanding looks and feels like the real thing.

Very good feel, nice heft and finish. Quick shipping and good customer service. A+++

The pistol is heavier than I expected but of excellent quality. The only thing missing were replica bullets for the cylinder.

very very good replica,actualy looks real.and feels realvery satisfied with this product

excellent replica also purchased holster and gun belt for this replica which exceeded my expectations for the price.

I have an old west theme in the room I call my library. The replica is in my quick draw holster hanging underneath my Hawken 50 cal muzzleloader. The Peacemaker looks real, acts real and has the heft of it's real counterpart. My actual firearms which are not muzzleloaders are locked in my safe.

Over all I'm very happy with the reproduction .45 cal Colt revolver. The minuses are: 1. The frame is just like a toy gun to pieces screwed together so the front seem is easy to spot. 2. The loading gate is spring loaded, so it will close every time you open the gate! This was not on the original. The gate will not stay open like the original, you have to hold it open with your finger. This is a little thing obviously since you can't fire it. If you buy the fake bullets they sell for the piece when you get them is the only time you will load it, so no big thing. However, I'd rather have it be like the original in all respects. This has limited use if you intend to use it in a video or film, unless it is never drawn from the holster. But it looks good, the bluing is nice and even, and the pistol looks fine in all other respects, and the grips are real wood.

I am very familiar with DENIX replicas. This is just another fine example of their craftsmanship.

Excellent, Beautiful replica you are just going to love and enjoy.

Love it

These guns are great. I already owned a few others similar to this, but I'd have to say that this one is the best yet. Looks and feels real and all the moving parts work as they should. Excellent product.

VERY fast delivery and a truly beautiful product. I can barely put it down- odd looks at work be damned!

Excellent purchase. The 1873 Colt Peacemaker Pistol Replica has the feel and movement of an authentic model. I purchased this pistol to improve my accuracy with quick draw, aiming and

every nice, exactly as advertised

These are so realistic, I was very impressed with the craftsmanship here, they would fool most people on sight. weighted and they feel 'Real' Very fast service and delivery of the order, everything was great.

These dummy shells are awesome , really completes my gun belt , i love it

The fake ammo looks real. But they are a tight fit in belt lupes and to big for gun chamber.

Very nice looking but extremely overpriced I could have bought real bullets 4 less than a third of what I paid for dummy bullets
