- The Flying Dutchman Colt Frontier Six Shooter is a somber reminder that these revolvers were put to use by both sides of the law.
Henry Wagner was a thief in the Pacific Northwest who used boats to quietly approach his targets, earning him the nickname, "The Flying Dutchman." His crime spree is extremely well documented, as is his 1913 robbery, where he drew iron against the lawmen of Langley, Washington.

Tactically speaking, for criminal or lawman, the Schofield is a superior revolver.
Not necessarily is the Schofield tactically better. When being used as a club, as in this event, the Schofield would likely break apart, while the rugged Colt would survive. The major reasons the Colt outsold the S&W revolvers in frontier areas was the Colt was better handling for drawing and firing, and much more rugged.
hell yeah! PNW love baby!!! Olympia, WA native here
It should be the Flying German. Dutchman is a man from the Netherlands.
Not in the Early American context the word "Dutch" was commonly used as slang for "Deutsch" (German). Evidence of this is when the German immigrants in Eastern Pennsylvania- were called " Pennsylvania Dutch". Also , in Missouri during the Civil war German Union sympathisers were called Dutch or Dutchmen.
@@JamesClark-lw6sw Exactly, Jacob Waltz, aka The Lost Dutchman of the gold mine fame was German.
That feeling when you think you just put someone in their place and showed everyone how smart you are…..but then James Clark walks in the room…..lol
Uh dutch means from Holland, there is deutsch but that is a naming for german language.. so maybe recheck if the flying dutchmen isn't a man from the netherlands...
Dutch in an older usage described anyone who spoke a Germanic language and was often used to describe people we'd think of as "Germans". A popular example of this is the "Pennsylvania Dutch" who are actually of Germanic heritage. The nickname was used for Henry Wagner in part because of his German surname and more significantly more because he operated like a pirate in the night drawing comparisons to the mythical ghost ship the Flying Dutchman.

Americans had no clue what "Deutschland" meant at the time. Everyone assumed it meant "Dutch>"
