I came across a list of the serial numbers of Colt 1st Generation Single Action Revolvers belonging to famous people like Wyatt Earp, Jesse James, Billy the Kid, and John Wayne. If you have a Colt Single Action Revolver made between 1873 and 1940 you may want to check the list to see if there is any information about your revolver.
