It is amazing how many Colt revolvers and some rifles have no front sights on them in the movies, as well as how many rubber guns they use. I know it's all not a historically correct venue and just entertainment, but they can sure be creative. I recently bought a Hollywood prop gun, fixed it up a little and gave it to my friend. It was a Henry with a brass plated frame and he needed another brass gun over his fireplace. The barrel was simply stuck in the frame and pinned in with a pin through the chamber area. The action actually worked quite well and was a good reproduction of an original...from a Hollywood state of mind ! It's in another state now, I'll see if he can post a pic or two of it.
