Firearms from Westerns: Specifically the Colt single action Army revolver, lever action rifles manufactured by Winchester or Henry and the side by side shotgun (the most widely used weapon on the frontier by far) I figure this is a good place to start this list. The SAA revolver and the lever action rifle were amazing pieces of advanced technology that were easily obtainable by the common man and they were tools for work, survival and putting food on your table. Too bad the ammunition technology of the time let these amazing tools down on a regular basis.
