Talk:Dead Man's Gun

The point of the series
Although the series follows the peregrinations of one particular, and readily identifiable, gun, the episodes are entirely separated, and in no particular sequence, so that the provenance of the gun does connect any episode with another episode. The gun is variously found apparently abandoned, among the possessions of some outlaw, in a pawnshop, among the effects of someone who had died or been killed, etc. The gun carried a curse and the only owners who died of old age were those who discarded the gun fairly quickly. The French title of this series was "The Law of the Colt" - but I am sure this gun is not a Colt; I would appreciate someone identifying its make and characteristics. On various forums it has been suggested that it is a Smith & Wesson Schofield or a Russian, nickle-plated, circa 1875. One episode (Next of Kin) had a character (played by Ed Asner) discussing the gun's features, including a monogram on its handle, but I do not remember the details, except that the monogram stood for a Latin phrase of three(?) words, the first starting with an S and the last word starting with an E. The final episode in the series had a hired gunslinger receiving this gun from a client - who turns out to be the Angel of Death (a ghostly walking skeleton) in disguise.Sussmanbern (talk) 20:26, 12 August 2011 (UTC) and (User:Mary DeLashmit)

Black Horse.
It seems to me that in every episode there is the same black horse. I think the horse is possibly a Morgan. But don't know for sure. Has anyone else noticed or have any info about this horse? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.240.47.148 (talk) 19:43, 22 August 2012 (UTC)

Expansion
This article is way too short and is missing a majority of information on the television series. Information such as the series' production, broadcast release, ratings, and reception are all absent from the article and need to be added with proper citations from reliable sources included for each piece of information added. The "home media" release section also needs to be cleaned up and expanded, with more variety in terms of sources (Only Amazon.com is used here). There is a lot of work that needs to be done to this article to have it reach its full potential. Hopefully someone comes along and give the article the attention it so desperately needs.--Paleface Jack (talk) 18:27, 19 September 2018 (UTC)
