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 SAA's. This example was produced in 1970 and has blue & case color finish, a 5 1/2" barrel and is chambered in the original .45 Colt cartridge. The revolver is in Excellent condition, appearing to have seen little if any use since leaving the factory. The revolver comes in a period-correct Colt "Stagecoach" box and would make a nice addition to any collection. Please see our photos and good luck!
