In denver, co as one of two guns of the same type in the shipment. our assessment: the colt single action army is perhaps the quintessential old west handgun, produced for more than a century, serving the u.S. Army as its sidearm from 1873 into the first world war and captivating audiences on the silver screen. The saa was discontinued by colt as it tooled up to provide for the wwii war effort, and it was thought by colt that the design was obsolete, swing-out cylinder revolvers had been around for half a century and autoloaders were gaining in popularity. Then, with the advent of television and western programs such as hopalong cassidy, the lone ranger, the cisco kid, and the gene autry show, american interest in the guns that won the west was reborn. In 1956, colt reintroduced the single action army, this new production run now referred to as the 2nd generation saas. this example was produced in 1969 with nickel finish, a 7 1/2″ barrel and is chambered for the . 357 magnum cartridge. It comes in a period-correct colt "stagecoach" box and is in fine condition, appearing to have seen light and responsible use over the last 57 years. This would make a fantastic addition to any collection and should still prove to be a fun shooter. Please see our photos and good luck!
