John A. Millington...displaying the differences from Single Action versus Double Action.
I apologize as I can't remember where I got these, It may have been from a member here years ago, but I thought it would be worth sharing with all the new members.

Colt factory photos OMM DA & SA

I love those old photos and especially the guns. The top photo is even included in one of my R.L. Wilson books. Thanks for posting Kid!

Interesting. The last photo tells it. Top is DA and bottom has the 'strut' removed from the hammer that makes Single Action. The trigger can't cock the hammer without being able to hook under the strut. Obviously work is done to the trigger/hammer sear interface. The SA conversion seems to full cock not so far back, giving faster lock time.

Maybe this will help. Also note the gentleman's name.

The characteristics of the factory SA only Officers Models are well documented in other threads.

Fun and interesting...

What year would these images date to then?

They are OMMs from the 50s.
