A "Cowboy" M&P

[Goony]

Or perhaps more accurately, a "cowgirl" one. A publicity photo of actress Gail Davis in her 1950's television role as Annie Oakley. The revolver she's brandishing is clearly an S&W M&P, nickeled or chromed, fitted with "stag" grips, and as a final touch sporting a faux ejector rod housing grafted onto the barrel.

They sure went to a lot of trouble doing that.

Especially considering how little attention they lavished on her costume.

Cleaver, those Hollywood producers and their firearms people. The outfit is a real attention getter.

In the 1950 movie musical “Annie Get Your Gun”, Betty Hutton in the title role has two similarly modified DA revolvers. Maybe the same ones. I don’t remember whether they were Colts or S&Ws. Not that it makes any difference.

Hers were Colts.

Another photo in which the gun appears to be the same gussied up M&P.

I remember noticing Annie's modified revolver back when the show ran on TV. Was just a kid but I could see that her gun was different.
