I looked to me like a D grade lifter with sawed off barrels. This would be correct for 1881. (there is a photo of Kevin Costner with it from the film in TPS) Wyatt hands it to John Holliday who is wearing a long coat that will conceal it as they walk to the Fly boarding house and their famous encounter in the alley next door. Doc uses it to kill one of the McLaury brothers with a load of buck in the chest. Which, according to the testimony, at the Sider hearing was exactly what happened... if Doc had shot an another of "The Cowboys" could he have qualified for a Parker Doubles Pin? Wyatt later kills Frank Stilwell in the train yard in Tucson with the Parker during the "Earp Vendetta"...
