[edit] Stampede Old West

This is the second Stampede. It has a fixed front sight, wood grip, and holds .45 Long Colt rounds, the same as the Colt Peacemaker. It has a 4 3/4 or 5 1/2 inch barrel, which makes the total length 9.5 inches or 11 inches. Its cylinder capacity is six rounds, as are the others.

[edit] Stampede Old West Marshall

This was the third model of the Stampede series by Beretta. It was given to those who wanted a shorter version of the revolver. It has a fixed front sight, a polished wood grip, and it holds .45 Long Colt rounds. This gun is 8.25 inches in length, and it's barrel is 3 1/2 inches in length.

[edit] Stampede Buntline Carbine

This is probably the most major of changes in the Stampede revolver line. It has a wood shoulder stock, a fixed sight, it also holds .45 Long Colt rounds, and cylinder capacity is still 6, and it is still single action. It is total 34 inches in length, and it's barrel is 18 inches. Wow. I suppose that this revolver might have been popular with the look of the Stampede, but feel of a rifle. This didn't sell as wildly as other models, but it has good reasons to be owned.
