A look at Sammy Davis Jr.'s custom Colt Single Action revolver (VIDEOS)

Besides being a talented performer and founding member of the Rat Pack, Sammy Davis, Jr. was an accomplished trick shooter.

Occasionally wearing his custom 1873 Colt SAA on stage with his highly-tooled one-of-a-kind Western rig, SDJ would captivate fans with an exhibition of his quick-draw abilities.

He also reportedly loved to target shoot and was a guest star on a number of popular Western TV shows of the 50s and 60s such as “The Rifleman,” “Zane Grey Theatre,” and “Wild, Wild West” where he got to use hardware on screen.

And from watching the above video, he really liked to personalize his gear.
