Markings: The top of the barrel is marked “COLT’S PT. F.A. MFG CO. HARTFORD CT. U.S.A.” The left side of the barrel is marked “1776 – U.S.A. BICENTENNIAL – 1976”.

Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Single Action Army is one of the most iconic revolvers in American history, symbolizing both a defining era of firearm design and the cultural legacy of the Old West. Chambered in .45 Colt with a traditional 7½-inch barrel, this example reflects the classic configuration that made the model famous for its balance, power, and authoritative presence. Its fixed blade front sight and frame-notched rear sight stay true to the original 19th-century layout, emphasizing simplicity and durability over modern adjustability. As a single-action revolver, it requires the hammer to be manually cocked for each shot, reinforcing the deliberate, methodical handling that became synonymous with frontier-era sidearms.

This 1976 Bicentennial-marked revolver carries special historical and visual significance beyond its mechanical heritage. Finished in Colt’s rich Royal Blue with color case-hardened accents, it presents a striking contrast that highlights the revolver’s classic lines. The smooth dark walnut grips, inlaid with a Presidential Seal on the left panel, add a commemorative touch that distinguishes it from standard production examples. Barrel markings referencing the 1776–1976 Bicentennial, along with the unfluted cylinder featuring a flag motif, further underscore its role as a tribute piece rather than a purely utilitarian firearm. Overall, this Single Action Army exemplifies Colt’s blend of historical reverence and craftsmanship, standing as both a functional revolver and a symbolic artifact of American heritage.
