Cap Gun Monday: Actoy LONE RANGER

No Lone Ranger I can recall carried a six-shooter that looked like this, but that didn't stop Actoy, makers of the Buntline Special I posted last year (HERE), from slapping his name on it. The only other L.R. gun I have is a silver Fanner 50 that does not bear his name, but has unique plain white grips and came in a black rubber Lone Ranger holster adorned with a silver bullet. We'll see that further down the trail. Hi-Yo. 

Cap Gun Monday: Actoy BUNTLINE SPECIAL

The jury is still out on whether Wyatt Earp ever carried a long-barreled Colt, but if he did it probably didn't look much like this. Still, while there were a lot of Wyatt Earp cap guns, this is the only one I know of that actually says BUNTLINE SPECIAL on it, which makes it pretty cool. This piece, dating from the late '50s, measures almost 11 inches long, and more than 6 inches of it is barrel. 

Aside from the length and the engraving, this looks pretty much like any other Actoy (or Pony Boy) gun, right down to the lanyard ring. We'll see a couple more of them before I deplete my arsenal.
