    This great Screen-Used Prop "GUNSMOKE" Gun came straight from the CBS television set of this great western series in 1974...
    The Prop Gun was acquired from Earl Huntoon, a propman who worked on the "GUNSMOKE" television series...it is screen-used on the show for at least the last 4 years of the series.(1990-1994) The gun was used in multiple episodes by a variety of characters, but mostly extras/background actors.
    It is a Television/Movie PROP and cannot be loaded or fired in any way...it has the orange cap on the end to comply with ebay & federal laws...
    This PROP is made of metal and Earl told me it's actually a very old vintage toy gun and does have wear & tear that you would expect!  He had a HUGE INVENTORY of a variety of PISTOLS & RIFLES.
    The PROP metal gun measures approximately 11" and has great detail, including these words, numbers and logo on the side of the gun...it is marked as an "Product Eng. Co., Portland, Ore, Pat. applied for, 45 SMOKER."  You can pull back the hammer that does make it click, but no smoke comes out like he said it used to.

    James Arness TV's Marshal Dillon on landmark 'Gunsmoke' series
    James Arness was the towering actor best known for portraying Marshal Matt Dillon, the strong and commanding symbol of frontier justice on the landmark TV Western series "Gunsmoke." He passed at 88.
    "Gunsmoke" debuted on CBS on Sept. 10, 1955, and
    ran until 1975, far outdistancing its many competitors and becoming one of the longest-running prime-time series in network TV history.
    In the process, Arness became one of television's most enduring stars, returning as Dillon in a handful of "Gunsmoke" TV movies in the late '80s and early '90s.
    At 6 feet 7, Arness was a bigger-than-life actor who amply filled the boots of the mythic Dodge City lawman in the series, which earned praise for breaking TV Western-genre conventions with its strong dramatic stories and psychologically complex characters.
    James Arness was cast as Marshal Dillon, along with the great
    supporting cast members: Dennis Weaver as Dillon's stiff-legged deputy, Chester Goode; Amanda Blake as Kitty Russell, the proprietress of the Long Branch Saloon; and Milburn Stone as the weathered and wise Doc Adams.
    His brother, actor Peter Graves, died in March 2010.
    This collection has been stored in an acid free case in a smoke free environment since being acquired.
