How much do they want for it? And where exactly is this gun shop?

Yes, it is VERY close to Indy's gun from Raiders. But the movie gun fired .45ACP (auto pistol ammunition that required the half-moon clips) instead of .455, which was slightly larger revolver ammunition. But since I never saw half-moon clips in the movie, I think it's possible he might have had a .455 or even a .44 special. Indy's also had the barrel cut down to 4". I have Noel Howard's Raiders holster and it wouldn't accommodate a revolver with a longer barrel.

: I recently stopped by a local gun shop and saw a revolver listed as:

: S&W .455 HE Mk2 M2

: and it looks exactly like this one from the IndyGear site

: Is this one of the revolvers used in the film before they shortened the barrel to 4in? Also, How deep are the holsters offered by Noel and Lee?

: Help please~
