A Colt revolver rifle is used by the character played by Ben Jonson in a 1962 episode of "Have Gun Will Travel," "The Fifth Bullet."
Question about Cartridge Conversions?
I have seen examples of original Colt Model 1855's in .38 Colt, presumably converted from .36 caliber rifles, and conversions to .44 Rimfire, likely from .44 caliber rifles. Now i was wondering if a .44 caliber rifle could be converted to .45 Colt using a 5-round cylinder, or if a .56 caliber rifle could be converted to .50 Rimfire (Spencer)?
Additionally, could a Colt Revolving Shotgun be converted to fire 10 or 12 Gauge Shotshell Cartridges? Z008MJ (talk) 10:08, 21 March 2014 (EDT)
