@ Mudpuddle: Kicks like a mule no doubt. But apparently its a real gun - or at least a prop of a real gun called a 'Mare's Leg'.
[From Wiki:
The Mare's Leg is the name given to a customized shortened rifle used by Steve McQueen's character on the television series Wanted: Dead or Alive (1958–1961). McQueen's character was named Josh Randall, and the gun has also been referred to as a Winchester Randall, or a Randall Special. Mare's Leg is now a generic term for a Winchester Model 1892 (or modern derivative) with a shortened barrel and stock.
Firefly (2002 television series) and Serenity (2005 film) starred Gina Torres as Zoe Alleyne Washburne, who used the same Mare's Leg prop created for the Fox TV Series Brisco County, Jr.]
