Old School -- My New Colt SAA

[Bruce in WV]

Now, send it off to Jim at Nutmeg sports (http://www.nutmegsports.com/) for a true old time Colt factory custom shop action job. It will feel like a different gun.

Sometimes they do a combination offer of ivory grips and an action job.; it will really set your rig apart from the crowd, and a very good value for the dollar.

I sent mine to colt a year ago.. Brent at the customshop took care of mine. I just wanted them to smoth out the action..

Got mine, made in 1882, 49 years ago in a hock shop in Seattle while visiting at the World's Fair . Lied about my age, paid $84 cash, and walked out the door with it. No ID, no ATF forms, no parental permission, none of that stinkin' stuff.

Still have both--the gun and the attitude.

Molon labe.

That just made me chuckle.

Too funny!

I chose the 7 1/2" because it was the size originally adopted by the Army in 1873.

Awesome SAA's! I would love to have one, I have a Ruger Blackhawk in 45 Colt that I shoot alot. I will have one someday for sure!

Very nice, I suspect you will be very happy with it.

Minor sidetrack, i've often though about picking up a repro, what are the good companies that produce decent ones.
