The Colt Walker was created in the mid-1840s in a collaboration between Texas Ranger Captain Samuel Hamilton Walker (1817–1847) and American firearms inventor Samuel Colt (1814–62), building upon the earlier Colt Paterson design. Walker wanted a handgun that was extremely powerful at close range.

The Colt Walker holds a powder charge of 60 grains (3.9 g) in each chamber, more than twice what a typical black powder revolver holds. It weighs 4+1⁄2 pounds (2 kg) unloaded, has a 9-inch (230 mm) barrel, and fires a .44 caliber (0.454 in (11.5 mm) diameter) conical and round ball.

In the 1968 book True Grit, 14-year-old Mattie carries a Colt Dragoon. However, possibly due to the Walker’s bigger size, a cartridge-converted Colt Walker was used as Mattie’s weapon in the 1969 film based on the book, though Wayne’s character referred to it as a Colt Dragoon nonetheless. In the 2010 remake of the film by the Coen Brothers, she carries a Dragoon, as originally described in the book.

This holster is made from 8-9oz vegetable tanned leather. This is important because vegetable tanned leather will not tarnish your firearm as other methods of tanned leather are prone to do.

Made for Colt Walker Revolvers
Fits barrels of 9 inch.

The belt loop on the back is good for a 2-1/2 inch wide belt that is 1/4 inch thick. Smaller belt sizes will also work.
