I did. It's something that I've looked for ever since I've had mine. To me the ironical thing about Lonesome Dove, the movie, is how in general everything was fairly authentic, but the author of the book, Larry McMurtry, is know for being fast and lose with history such as having Judge Roy Bean hung by the villain in a later book.

Well, according to MC Murtry, Gus and Woodrow are driving the first cattle heard to Montana in 1876 (they discuss the Custer massacre). Actually, Nelson Story drove the first large heard of 600 Texas cattle to Montana in 1866 - ten years earlier. SO McMurtry is still fast and loose with the truth. In fact, much of the Historical accuracy of the miniseries as far as settings, weapons, clothes and grunge, was due to the Australian director, Simon Wincer , absolute (even anal) demand for authenticity in all things even dialogue. The casting and props people viewed thousands of old period photographs for buildings, furnishings, clothing, tack, saddles, weapons, holsters, and manner of dress.
Virtually all of the characters wore cross-draw holsters in Lonesome Dove, except for a few townies. That is absolutely correct, as a strong side holster is a bitch to draw on horseback. I know, I have tried! Strong side did not become popular until the Mexican loops styles grew more common.
Oh, By The Way... let's not forget Danny Glover and his Henry in "Silverado".
