Colt single action air pistols

Colt Peacemaker Air Pistols

This iconic Colt has now been manufactured as a high quality Single Action CO2 powered air gun. It operates and cocks identically to the original, apart from the recoil and noise, though powered by a gas cartridge each cartridge will last approximately for 100 rounds.

Umarex has worked closely with the US Marshals Museum at Fort Smith Arkansas to produce this accurate representation of the  Colt 1873 Peacemaker. The only real difference in looks is the way there is a gap between the hammer and the main body. This is to allow the firing pin mechanism to function. It's not really noticeable unless you are really familiar with the original though.

There are 3 models available in the U.K. The first shown above is the 'blued' version, an authentic looking 'brand new' gun as they would have looked like in 1873.
The one below is the 'antique' version, for those that like their guns to look a bit aged.

 The supplied 'bullets' are loaded with .177 metal bbs and load into the gun just like the original. The CO2 cartridge is held in the handle like most air pistols and is really discreet.

The Nickel version is solidly built.


Loading is authentic, the gun even has an ejector rod to push the used cartridges out.
It uses .177 metal BBs as ammo. These aren't the most accurate of things, but then neither was the real gun! The gun is all metal construction and has a really hefty feel to it. Ideal for plinking.

We have all 3 of these in stock priced at £169.




The gun comes in a cardboard box, but Umarex have printed it up much like the original wooden box would have been.

If you want the complete collection of 'cowboy' guns we also have the Sheridan under-lever .177 metal BB gun in stock at only £55. Not the most accurate, but a lot of fun!
