Inspired by Captain Samuel H. Walker of the U.S. Mounted Rifles, the Colt Walker proved the battlefield potency of the revolver during the Mexican War. Chambered in .44 (traditionally cast “32 to the pound”), its huge cylinder, 9-inch barrel, and heavy frame made it a weapon for the toughest soldiers and frontiersmen — and, until the advent of the .357 Magnum, one of the most powerful handguns ever produced. 

The Colt Walker’s stopping power during the Mexican War helped secure the revolver’s reputation as a battle-worthy arm and changed military and civilian firearms expectations across the frontier. 

This reproduction features an antique gray finish on all metal parts and an antiqued walnut grip, giving it a period-correct, rugged appearance that suits both living-history display and controlled range use (where legal and safe).
