In 1879 the .44WCF or .44/40 cartridge was introduced in the "Colt <strong>Frontier</strong> Six-Shooter." The advantage of this was the Winchester '73<br />
was chambered in this powerful cartridge. Then a cowboy or a ranger could carry one cartridge belt instead of two, and one supply of<br />
ammunition instead of two. In a fight, putting a .44-40 cartridge in a .45 Colt chamber could be quite dangerous.<br />

wood as in this case it will be checkered & it would be a shame to put in the work on<br />
checkering if the wood grain did not compliment it. The barrel is rifled at this stage.
