Texas Ranger Sam Walker was a firm believer in Colt’s pistols, but in 1846 as a Captain in the United States Mounted Rifles he wanted a pistol powerful enough to bring down a horse. Working with Samuel Colt, a new pistol was designed that held a higher charge of black powder and chambered six .44-caliber balls. Walker ordered 1,000 of the new revolvers for his mounted troops, and rode off to the War with Mexico.
At nearly 4-1/2 lbs. the 1847 Walker is still the biggest and was the world’s most powerful revolver up until the .357 Magnum came into being in the 1930s.
