agree  Anton Shcheglov: Владимир отчасти прав, название связано с техасским рейнджером, но сериал с Чаком Норрисом здесь ни при чем. Тот рейнджер жил еще в XIX веке. http://tinyurl.com/colt-walker

  -> По-моему, очевидно, что действие в произведении происходит задолго до Чака Норриса :) Спасибо!

agree  Oleksiy Markunin: Михаил, только полагаю должно быть "УоЛкер", потеряли букву. http://goo.gl/4NnLG

вот еще нашел уточнение:

Walker Texas Ranger carried a 6-inch stainless Smith Model 629 .44 Mag in a cross draw holster in the first season. Norris later switched to either a stainless Taurus or Beretta 92.

Most street level law enforcement , tex rangers or not, use either 38 revolvers or 9 mm semi-auto as larger or hotter ammo (e.g. 357 mag.) can penetrate too much and endanger bystanders.

если pistol можно назвать "револьвер" (а кольт - это револьвер) - то, может, и кольт.

Taurus и Beretta - пистолеты

Smith Model 629 .44 Mag - револьвер (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_&_Wesson_Model_29)
