Those wishing to use the later model Colt .41 frame models (Army Special/Official Police) may do so if in the following configuration: 6" unshrounded light barrel, fixed sights, blued, Square butt. "Officers" models may be allowed if proper to the portrayal.
Later S&W K frames may also be used if having a 6" unshrouded light barrel, blued, fixed sights, ROUND butt. NO "Officers" models allowed. S&W did not offer such a model in this era.
