32-20 made in 1905 that I bought locally a few years ago. It is all original including the springs, and the grips are matching. I have not shot it because I would change out the springs if I were going to shoot it, and I don't want to change a thing. I have not had it lettered - features are similar to documented Copper Queen Mine guns right around it in serial number.

Here's my SAA from 1927 .38 Colt caliber. View attachment 733211
Dear LEO,

I really like my 1st Gen guns. I like them a lot. Then you post another one of yours and mine get relegated to the "rust bucket" category. It is depressing. So depressing I'm gonna go stack hay....again. It is mindless work and will hopefully help make my "old rusted Colt's" depression better 🤣
