Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Single Action Army (SAA) 2nd Generation is a stunning example of the craftsmanship and timeless design that has made the SAA one of the most iconic revolvers in history. Manufactured by Colt, this particular model, chambered in .38 Special, is a direct descendant of the original 1873 design that became synonymous with the American frontier. With a barrel length of 5 ½ inches, the revolver’s blue barrel contrasts beautifully with its color-cased frame, showcasing the classic aesthetic that has remained largely unchanged since its inception. The blade front sight and frame-notched rear sight ensure accuracy while retaining the simple yet effective design intended for quick target acquisition, which was essential for lawmen, soldiers, and outlaws alike. The synthetic black checkered grips with the Rampant Colt medallions add both a touch of style and a firm, ergonomic hold, complementing the revolver’s overall rugged design.

While the SAA has seen several discontinuations over the years, the demand has been so strong that Colt has reintroduced it multiple times, underscoring its lasting legacy.
