So, in the hands of an expert, there's not much difference (if any): YouTube link Granted, he's wearing a heavy glove to fan the hammer, but so what? |

While I have not fired a Colt Peacemaker I have fired a Colt 1911, which as fond as I am of it is a pretty slow fire compared to say the Sig-Sauer. Still, if you want someone to go down and stay down, that big cartridge does the job Great video – thanks for sharing |

I have a Colt 1911 and a Colt revolver( not a Peacemaker) but never tried fanning it. |

Sure, but you run into mopes, not one of the three people in the world who can do that. |

It takes practice of the perfect draw and shoot to do that. I used to be able to fire 12 rounds from a S&W 686 4" revolver in 5 seconds from the holster. That includes the reload. Could not do it now, but I no longer shoot two or three times a week. Mike Bunkermeister Creek
