You tell ’em I’m coming! And Hell’s coming with me you hear! Hell’s coming with me!

Yep, this video was posted back in July; however, it disappeared somehow. KZfaq is looking into it and trying to figure out what happened. Nothing controversial about the video, so I'll reserve my paranoia for other more suspicious issues out there. Hard to figure, though. If you post videos and such, you know that deleting a video is a three or four step process, so it's not like you can accidentally touch the wrong key and delete a video, as we've all probably done with a piece of text in a word processing document. Thankfully, a loyal viewer notified me that he could not find it; otherwise, videos could possibly disappear without our maybe ever knowing it.

“Doc why the hell you doin this?” Doc: Wyatt Earp is my friend. “Hell I got lotsa friends” Doc: I don’t

The man who got me started on my pistol buying spree.

3:43 "The sound of freedom!" I love it.

Thanks for re-posting this. I took my three sons and uncle to see Tombstone, while vacationing in Saint Augustine, Fl. I’ll never forget the look on my uncle’s face, at the end of the movie when I told him he was 13 years old when Wyatt Earp died. A good memory for me. I have watched Tombstone countless times. Americana! I watched the Wyatt Earp series with Hugh O’Brien as a kid.

theory: hickock45 is proficient with every gun becuase hes a time traveler and has had to use guns from every era, even clubs and bows

A lot of guys are hesitant about buying an "old fashioned" Single Action revolver. They are so much fun to shoot! I encourage everyone to get one. You're holding American History in your hands when you shoot one.

KZfaq shenanigans! Guess I'll take it as a rerun! Still fun hickok!

There was another infamous individual from the days of the Wild West, who was well known for his specialty revolver, although he has been given short shrift by the historians. He was an early organised crime figure named Megalito Luvless, his special-order short barrelled revolver was known as a runtline special. The gun became popular for self defense in later generations, but under a different name - the snub-nose. Maybe the buntline was named after this revolver?

No man would dare delete the Buntline Special!

I did watch it the first time! And now I will watch it a second time! :) They better not mess with our Hickok 45 library. An invaluable resource when interested in a certain firearm! Thanks Hickok 45 and son!

There's an order someone came up with that was written by Earp to Colts factory. It stated he wanted it to have a barrel that came up even to the ejecting rod. Gun to have Gutta Percha grips, meaning hard rubber. So that would put the barrel length at 4-3/4" long. Much easier to get out of the holster. as he said, take your time in a hurry.

Thanks for putting it up again, check your library regulary and see how it is with the episodes.

That is an amazing piece. I’m getting started with my firearm collection. Starting with black powder pietta 1960 army because i haven’t gotten my firearm permit yet. But from then on I’ll be working my way towards this model!

My brother-in-law and I have quoted Tombstone at every family gathering for over twenty years. Just sent him the link to this. Awesome!

What a rare and beautiful pistol, Hickok45, you are an excellent shot and a real enjoyment to watch. Thank you.

I really enjoy your content. Thanks for reposting the video.

Nice gun. Doc Holiday used a pair of short-barreled matching revolvers. He used a short-barreled revolver mostly for pulling faster.

I watched this one back in july. Had no idea it disappeared. But this is a good one. I love old Revolvers so I will watch it again. :)

I have a Uberti/Cimmaron Ranch Hand .45LC revolver. the quality is really nice. It's very smooth with a nice trigger break too.

God bless you Hickok, you are an amazing man. Thank you for all the things you do sir.

The gentleman who presented this video did a really good job. I thank you, sir.

I am loving this. So much. Going out to get a Heritage Rough Rider so my kids can have some range time with us. Albeit, .22LR for them. LOL The single action is so much fun.

Awwww man, I've got to watch it again, whatever will I do! 😂 Always a pleasure to have a new video even if it's a repeat!

When attacked by 6 people, a 17 round pistol may give you a tactical advantage, but it would be a lot cooler if you can say you won it with a single action six shooter.

Just as good the second (or third) time. How can you not enjoy a six gun video? Be well guys.

I love the history lessons that we get from your videos. You give just enough to get me interested in the story so I will look into it. I have learned so much because of you. I wish I was working at the Gunshop/range now instead of 22 years ago.i thought I had a great knowledge of firearms. I had enough to be able to appraise firearms for insurance companies. I was the guy that did it for the shop. I would do whole collections and individual firearms. I have seen some very rare firearms when I lived in Colorado. I know you don't want us to believe you so we do look it up. I bet you were many kids favorite teacher. I know you would have been mine. I would sell fishing lures to mist of the staff at my highschool that fished because I had a business in school making fishing equipment for a school class and club DECA, Distributive Education Club of America. I'm sure you have heard of it being a teacher. We would also talk about shooting andy dad and I got a few teachers to go fish a tournament with us in separate boats. My dad went to school with a few of my teachers. It was great times. You make me want to buy a old CVA black powder rifle or pistol kit to assemble and stain myself. You already got me to buy 2 Glocks. Happy Safe Shooting 🇺🇸💪

Hey! hickok45! you make good videos. keep makin' em.

Just learned how to eject empties. The man is an encyclopedia of gun lore.

A revolver needs a safety like a Harley needs an ashtray.

Dude you have shown me the path of movie firearms so imma be strapped up at the range with Wyatt earps buntline and blondies colt navy

Que puntería!!!!!!!!! Como siempre el mejor hickok

THE BEST CHANNEL ON KZfaq!

Your a smart man love your videos much respect from South Louisiana

KZfaq can do whatever they want. Surprised they dont give you more grief being a 2a channel

That is one gorgeous Buntline Special Revolver, Hickok45 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In your July posting I pointed out that the buntline was made to be used with a detachable stock. That would classify it as an SBR. My Grandfather was a gunsmith and invented a way to convert a single action into a semi auto and wrote a novel about an old west gunsmith that knew his secret conversion and gave one to an old time lawman. The outlaws would count his shots and rush him when they thought he was empty. To their surprise his gun never ran dry.

Recently bought the cap and ball version of this with a 7 1/2" barrel. Fit and finish are great. Fires reliably. 1st SAA clone and 1st blackpowder revolver

Ned Buntline, a "dime novelist" of less literary stature than folks like F. Scott Fitzgerald, bragged to the world that he had given a 12-inch barreled Colt SAA to Wyatt Earp. There is no evidence that Wyatt Earp ever carried it, or even possessed it. I think that some people have written that Colt sold three of them to Mr. Buntline, but where these revolvers wound up nobody knows.

The colt bountlie special was given to Wyatt Earp by writer Ned Bountlie,who wrote the Iyrics of the Buffalo Bill Cody plays.

came faster to this video than a bullet in the range!

I've seen it before but its been a really long time and I'll watch it again!

9:22 All I have 'twas my Grampa's is his WW1 30-06 & his old Colt & screwdriver - just like that one, to loosen that cylinder base pin screw.

Classic revolver from the west

When the legend becomes fact, print the legend. As a former (aged six) owner of two Wyatt Earp Lone Star Buntline Specials I'm going to forget everything you said.

Hickok 45 that Beautiful gun i love older cowboy gun's i wish I could shoot like you

Greetings from Canada Mr. Hickok

I have wanted one of these for years!! I would love to shoot one someday. I looked up the price tag. $1,000. To rich for my blood. But beautiful firearm . Love your Videos Hickok45!!

You should do an M1-22 citadel. It's an M1 carbine copy in .22 lr.

Thanks for reposting, I missed it the first time.

I knew I wasn't crazy I was trying to find this the other day and couldn't

I bought one strictly because tombstone is one of my favorite movies. I keep mine in a clear display case under my tv in the basement

i did watch it the first time! good video, keep them coming

I own that buntline special Wyatt Earp model. It's cool. Sights are good, and it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot. There is record of people(mostly Buffalo hunters and plainsmen) ordering longer than 7 inch barrels. One of the most famous is a 16 inch barrel saa with a saddle holster and an attachable buttstock. That being said the Wyatt Earp myth seems to vome from a "long barrel colt" given as a gift to Wyatt for target shooting. I put "long barrel colt" in quotes because that was what his wife said about a gun he received as a gift that he ended up storing away and never carried. But thats the only record of him owning a "buntline". And it would seem that he was given it sometime after the events at tombstone, as she spoke as if she was there when he received it. They obviously weren't that popular with gunfighters, but if you wanna hit a target at 100 yards it's not a bad choice. I prefer a 7 inch barrel personally, though I own a modified 4 inch barrel reproduction for fast draw with wax bullets and such. 7 inch just feels right when drawing and shooting.

I have the Taylor/ Uberti 1873 Cattlemen .45colt & it has a51/2 barrel with color case frame & the gun is so nice, that I won't let my retired law man brother touch it! Or my deputy Sheriff nephew shoot it either! It's one of my prized possessions! I do shoot it periodically! But I am the only one that shoots it! It is accurate for a period revolver! My Ruger Blackhawk with adjustable sights is more accurate! So I shoot the 1873 for personal fun. I hunt & on occasions will let another person shoot the big Ruger! But the Uberti, is just too nice to let others scuff it up! I've had the Ruger for 41 years & recently got it re-blued & got the fancy checkered rose wood grips & haven't let my brothers shoot it! Not after the fiasco my brother caused when I first bought the Ruger; he asked if he could look at it & I said yes, my dad & I stepped out on the porch,he had an electrical problem we were working on & while we were outside... I had told my brother the revolver was loaded....& I thought since he was a State Police officer that he knew about Ruger revolvers; apparently he did not know it was safe to carry all 6 rounds in a Blackhawk with a transfer bar! While dad & I were outside; we heard a loud bang!! My know it all police officer brother... kicked out 5 live rounds & took aim at a photo of a deer on the calendar which was hanging on the side of my mother's new refrigerator! He aimed,cocked the hammer & squeezed the trigger! That was the bang we heard! Dad & I ran inside to see if everyone was OK? My brother just stood there with the revolver in a Weaver stance that he learned in police academy! My mother came into the kitchen & got really upset, because my brother had " killed" her new refrigerator! Then she got mad at me for letting him handle the gun! I told her,that I told my cop brother that the gun was loaded & dad backed me up! But the fun part was, I retrieved the big 250grain lead slug,which had missed all the" vital organ components " of the refrigerator & dad took some " bondo" & spray painted over the hole..and that refrigerator worked for another 15 years!... but I had to promise my mom,that I would never let my police man brother shoot that Ruger again! Mom & dad are now passed on & my brother has his own Ruger Blackhawk in .357 & is semi retired; but his son is a deputy Sheriff & so I don't let him shoot my Blackhawk either!

I've been drooling over this Wyatt Earl model for years. Concerning safeties on these old style revolvers I hope the anti gun maniacs don't get the government to RUIN them with some type of awful safety systems, which would destroy them for sure.

I realize this video is alittle older. But figured I'd comment all the same. I can completely understand the historical inaccuracies. But just like when the novels were written. It really doesn't matter much at all. The idea of the stories and the feeling they give people can often matter far more. For alot of people Wyatt Earp will always be Mr Russell Slapping a poser in a saloon. At the end of the day that's fine. Its still a very cool gun. Many guns are not practical at all. Some in actual real stories. Have loved your videos since way back. Thank you for what you do.

Leather strip over the hammer was probably a common carry solution with these pistols.

Thats really HIS revolver? Danm you! Lol

Love the guns, and I am dying laughing 😅 Fun info in between shots!

Hickok45.... coolest man since Steve McQueen

I saw one of Wyatt Earp's original revolvers a few weeks ago.

I think the truth from what I found out is that Wyatt carried a Smith & Wesson No. 3 with an 8" barrel at the OK corral.

The Buntline Special is no daisy, I must concur.

I have a postcard with an old photo of Wyatt Earp and that gun. Very nice long one!

I had an itch for a single action revolver, this is a sign

Wyatt lives about a mile from my house, I’ve driven by his place countless times in my six decades one of theses days I’ll have to pay my respects.

You make guns looks so small

Hugh O'Brian taught himself to draw that great long hogleg as quick as most folks could draw a standard pistol. So he made it work, but he had to train for it.

TY for sharing

I love you Hickok

Maybe that anti-Nerf gun mall Santa also works at KZfaq.

I hate that the video disappeared, however I can watch it again #5.😀😀

Great video! Thank you for sharing! :)

Hi hickok45 from Colombia, here I see you too

Great to see that you found it.

In terms of a long-barreled pistol, I prefer the Artillery Model Luger P08 but the Buntline Special is definitely a nice one.

i was surprised how good that balistar stuff is - lawrenceburg keeeentuky

I think that Bat Masterson stated that he had his presentation Buntline cut down to 7-1/2" which he said was "A much more manageable length."

On Cimmarons ? I just grind the base pin shorter.

So glad to hear from you in a proper time frame... have been getting five and six year old Videos... have you noted shadow banning on your channel???

so glad you found this video!! I try find this gun in Red Dead Redemption 2 my aim is so poor but its very difficult!

Saw this and will enjoy again!

I'd wager that Hickok has learned, since the day this video was made(but for the viewer in late 2020), that Cimarron includes a flush cylinder pin retention screw with the Old Model framed Ubertis it sells nowadays. Look for a plastic bag in the hidden recesses of the Cimarron box.

Good job keeping all of your content backed up.

What’s interesting to me is how good the 45 colt cartridge can be in a “defensive” setting. I mean Skeeter Skelton’s load for 44 mag is a 240 grain at around 1000 FPS, which is very close to a 45 colt with a 255 grain bullet with 6 grains of unique...... makes me wonder *starts looking for ruger in 45 colt*

Wyatt Earp's mother's name was Virginia Ann Cooksey, my family is related through her. I've researched Wyatt Earp quite a lot, and that Buntline is basically the replica of a movie prop. The theory of his sidearm being 7.5" is a good one; there is quite a bit of evidence that supports the idea that he carried a 5.5" through much of his LE career. Awesome video and great one handed shooting with that SAA!

I almost bought I cimerron 38 special at a gun show a while back. Regret It to this day.. They are so nice

I love your content dude

I very enjoy with your videos, from Iran

Hello love your shows

I need one of these. Now to spend all my money on a pistol...

Thanks for the effort to repost this again .

There it is. It's the *BIG IRON*

My friends: how are you not going insane during quarantine? Me:

how did i miss this one🤔 oh i see now thts crazy.

Guns have always fascinated me they're beautiful but also extremely deadly

Maybe he carried one just for buffalowing bad guys. In the movie Wyatt Earp (not tombstone) he was disliked because he hit people over the head a lot and they thought that he was to quick to (buffalo) people. I'm sure that buntline was very good for that.

i missed it the first time becuase im sick and was asleep but im watching it now!
