I have found an SSA with the serial #52If this is ligit how do I get it authenticated?And how much should I pay? The gentleman is asking $1200It's in fair condition, prob a 5 on a 1-10 scale. Almost no blue left, but boa allot of pitting.
I am new to these guns and don't know really what to look for. I don't know what a pinched frame isCan someone post a pic please? Also a pic of a copy, so I can compare.What markings/lack of markings should I look for?Thanks for all the input!
Well the internet is to slow to load pics out here, so will do that when I get to town next.Looked at the gun and it's not a pinched frame, had a long loading gate cutout, but a short replacement loading gate.Almost no blue left, replaced grips(stag) and was stamped Colt on the left side of frame.The se# was indeed 52 stamped on frame in front of trigger guard, and on cylinder.
