The name addition "Frontier Buntline" is attributed to this Single Action Army type revolver due to a colorful and notorious personality named Edward Z.C. Judson. Under the pseudonym Ned Buntline, Judson is considered one of the best dime novel authors from the "Wild West" era, but also a notorious con artist and fraudster. It is said that he received several special, extra-long Colt SAA 1873 (engraved with his initials) from the Colt company, which he claimed to have presented to Wyatt Earp among others. Due to Buntline's fame and the widespread legend surrounding his revolvers, these rare, extra-long Peacemaker revolvers are often referred to as "Frontier Buntline." These revolvers with a barrel length of 12 - 16.5 inches are now sought-after collector's items and are rarely available in original condition for sale. Allegedly, this model was commissioned by the author Ned Buntline. This "Colt" replica for sale is a nearly faithful reproduction of the original from 1873 in a "more modern" caliber.
