Manufactured by D. D. Packenbush, the Double-Action Revolver is a truly unique weapon in the game. Modeled after the classic Colt M1892, it comes gold-plated and adorned with subtle floral engravings. The ivory-like grip adds to its elegance and features the inscriptions "D.D.P" and "Repeating Arms Co.," yet another nod to Red Dead Redemption.
