Item Description
Bryant Ridge Co. is pleased to present this limited production run single-action revolver for a penny-start auction; this is the Colt Cowboy.
The Colt Cowboy Single Action is a traditionally styled revolver chambered in .45 Colt, offered with 4¾-, 5½-, and 7½-inch barrel lengths and marked “COLT COWBOY .45 COLT” on the left side of the barrel. Featuring all-steel construction, a transfer bar safety, and classic charcoal case colors on the frame contrasted with blued components, it was designed to echo the look and feel of early Single Action Army revolvers. Produced between 1999 and 2003 after being advertised in 1998, the model incorporates black Rampant Colt composition grips reminiscent of first-generation SAAs, resulting in a 40-ounce revolver that emphasizes traditional aesthetics while reflecting a modern production approach.
According to the owner, this example is in “New Old Stock” condition, and we see no evidence to indicate otherwise.

From a broader analytical standpoint, the Colt Cowboy Single Action can be understood as a symbolic product rather than a purely technical one. It exists at the intersection of nostalgia, craftsmanship, and brand legacy, appealing to those who value authenticity and historical continuity. The revolver’s deliberate operation and traditional ergonomics reinforce a slower, more intentional shooting experience, standing in contrast to the rapid-fire, feature-driven designs common in modern handguns. As such, the Cowboy model underscores the lasting relevance of classic firearm concepts when presented with respect for their origins. It serves as a reminder that, within the firearms landscape, cultural resonance and historical identity can be just as influential as technical advancement.
