    I've been searching for about a year now for custom aluminum grips. I'd like silver grips like seen on the quick and the dead but that's a little out of my price range but if someone out there is selling a pair or either silver or aluminum I'd be down for either of them and be willing to pay the...

    Hello all. New member here. This is my 1882 1st gen SAA .45.. I was lucky enough to come across this piece a couple years ago. I purchased it from an antique store in Florida. It was among a large collection they had acquired from the daughter of the previous owner that had passed away. It...
  4. Colt .22 Single Action Revolver
    I recently was fortunate enough to add this very nice NIB Colt peacemaker 22 with the 4 3/4” barrel and matching 22 WMR to go with my Colt Frontier Six Shooter in 44 WCF. These little six shooters are very well done with beautiful case coloring on the steel frame and blued steel parts! The...

    I'm a specialty firearms dealer down in Cave Creek, Arizona. I have access to a couple of significantly heavy Colt collections here in the area that I am looking to liquidate. I don't want to violate any community rules so unless I am asked, I won't share what is currently in my inventory or...

  8. Single Action Army
    A few weeks ago I posted a question asking for recommendations on a competent gunsmith forum members trusted their SAA’s with to adjust point of aim. I had checked locally with gunsmiths who have done good work for me before, and got some quotes, but didn’t feel really confident they would do it...
  9. Single Action Army
    Hi everyone I just inherited this Colt from my grandfather. I have been doing some research on it to try to prove that it is in fact authentic, and I came across this chat form. I am curious if you guys think I should purchase a Kopec letter to prove it. There are no military inspection stamps...

    I recently received numerous colts from my grandfather after his passing. Sent one (old ‘automatic’...1911) back to Colt for refurb. This one (see pics) is interesting to me and have conflicting feedback on its authenticity. I would l or to get cleaned up and able to shoot. Input welcome.
  11. Single Action Army
    Hello, I've been looking for a Colt SAA in .357 w/4.75" barrel for a couple months now. Not sure on most people's feeling on a Colt SAA in .357 but trying to keep the different calibers in my safe to a minimum with the prices of ammo lately. I'm looking for an earlier manufacturing date. If...

    The previous owner of my recently acquired 1st Gen SAA says he shoots Black Hills cowboy loads through it as well as bp handloads. This is my first foray into antique firearms that still function, so I must ask-- is it safe for me to shoot cowboy low pressure loads (HSM, Black Hills, Hornady...)...

    I just added a new 7 1/2" Cavalry Model recently. Was lucky to find it at a gun store locally on the shelf. The last one I ordered took almost a year to get. I am hoping to add a second generation gun to this mix shortly. I have shot them all and think there is something special about this...

    Here is an interesting auction I found where there selling the gun and holster owned by ARVO OJALA. That is the guy who trained James Arness how to fast draw and he was also the actor that got shot every week on the TV show on the opening scene. Here's a link.
  16. Colt Revolvers
    I have read several postings lately about end shake. I have 2, 3rd gen SAA. One 357 And the other 44 special. I went and bought needle gauges since both are1980 productions. The 357 has a .003 gap and the 44 is .004. Since I only shoot cowboy loads should I be concerned? I have read that...
