What gun did Gene Hackman use in the quick and dead?

Gene Hackman's character, "The Herod" in "The Quick and the Dead" uses a modified 1851 Colt Navy Revolver.

It's a classic black powder revolver, but it's been modified with a longer barrel and a scope, giving it a more modern appearance and enhancing its accuracy. This reflects the character's unorthodox and perhaps even ruthless nature, as he uses a weapon associated with the Old West but adapts it for his own specific needs.
