The series was set in the 1870s. Kansas entered the Union in 1861. The Marshall's service provided local law enforcement in territories, not in state. The duties Dillon performed would have been handled by a town Marshall or (Ford) county Sheriff. Each state (or federal court district) had one Marshall; Dillon would have been a Deputy Marshall.

Manufactured in the mid 20th century, it precedes the Llama commercial with numbers, like Llama XV, which is the model in 22 LR sold in the USA in the Eighties.\n\nThe pistol was manufactured in ACP 32, ACP 380 and 22 LR.

There were several police/detective shows from that period, but none of them I can think of took place in Vegas. The only one that comes to mind was in the late 70's, that would be Vegas starring Robert Urich as Dan Tanna.\n\nWish I could be more help.

Nahhhh......real setting.....fictional stories. \n\n "SAMMYVILLE, it's a fictional story set around real people the real "private" town of Sammyville, Oregon, and centers around an old, dangerous local… authority figure. not a cop, not a mayor, not a godfather, and examines the weird neo-frontier life lived by the 60 or so criminals/locals/passers by who live under the leadership of Sammy, a local old man who carries a gun, is quick to use it, and literally owns the town."

"The setting of the book, Killing Mr. Griffin was in more than one place. The whole book took place in a small serene town. But the main setting was at the kids' high school because that's where the crime was committed."\n\nIt probably takes place when it was written, in 1979, as it was a normal high school setting.\n\nhttp://www.edserv.sjcoe.net/we/discourse2/Griffin.html

I would think that they may have not been common until the twentieth century, but the did exist and were used
