Colt army issue Hello. In an American horror movie, a boy says that the local funeral director is strange and possibly not human. And that he even tried to kill him. The boy's brother gives him a shotgun and tells him to stay home, while he goes check the funeral parlor. Big Brother: You'll be safe here. Just lock all the doors and windows. And don't follow me. Little brother: You sure you're going to be OK with that? Big Brother: I'm just going go up there and take a look around. Nobody's going to see me. But heck, a Colt army issue will put a man down, and keep him there. A screenshot of the scene: https://ibb.co/1KvR3mS Could you tell me what a "Colt army issue" is? Especially, I'm not sure what the word issue means here, and Colt Army (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colt_Army_Model_1860) is a revolver, not a semi-automatic pistol. it just doesn't make much sense to me. I'd appreciate any help. Thank you!
