From the cylinder length I thought it a Judge. When they first came out, I bought one, another of my many mistakes.

If I recall correctly, that Colt was a gift to Pablo from none other than Gary Cooper!

Is the muzzle of Kelly's trapdoor really belled?

It appears to be belled, I was hoping that someone would know something about it.

looking only at the black & white image, it appears to me that the forward 1/3 (or so) of the barrel is wrapped with something. Perhaps raw-hide?
The color version is hand-painted (or perhaps photo-shopped if done recently) over the original B&W image and does appear to be belled.

Yes, he rawhide covered the bayonet attachment so it would avoid the assault rifle classification. But, look what rifle he was carrying in 1898. He had an interesting life:

If the date of 1898 is correct, he's got an 1895 Savage I think?
