The Cowhand is one of those medium sized toy cap pistols that came out during the last few years before the total control of Kusan. It was a 250 shot repeater and only cost $ .98. The design was quite simple and it used roll caps. This gun came out in 1961. It was designed to fill in a market for medium guns that didn't cost very much, and so the little tykes could afford them. It also supplemented the other end of the line, that is the Stallions.

Since it wasn't very fancy and was one of the lesser guns, finding one in pristine shape is a challenge because very few people saved them, thinking that they would not become a collector's item. Still, you can find one in pretty good shape. The primary reason to own one of these Cowhands is to complete the set.

This photo show how the cylinder area opens up to allow you to put in the roll caps. My photo.



This blued Cowhand is pretty rare.

And so is this later offering of the Cowhand gun & holster. This was sometime AFTER 1965, when Uncle Talley sold out to Kusan, but I include it here because...this is the Cowhand page, after all.
