Calibers/models/years?

[GoodOlBoy]

I am looking for a place to find information on what calibers where available in what model rifles/pistol in what years of the old west. This is for a novel project I have in mind more than it is for cowboy action, but I figure they kinda cross paths.

Anyway

Thanks in advance.
