Tom Horn yanked that .44 hogleg out of Bill's holster and emptied all 6 shots into the ground right at Bill's mule.

A large heavy caliber handgun, originally used to refer to a Colt Walker or similar sized revolver. Still in use today when referring to a big bore , long barreled handgun , typically a single action revolver. A hogs leg has quite the crook to it with the foot and since an old Colt blackpowder revolver somewhat resembles that form hence the term.
