Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Single Action Army (SAA) is a single-action revolver designed for the U.S. government service revolver trials of 1872 by Colt's Patent Firearms Manufacturing Company and was adopted as the standard military service revolver until 1892. At the beginning of World War II, Colt ceased production of the Single Action Army revolver to devote more time to filling orders for the war. When the war ended, the advent of television and Western-themed movies created customer demand for the revolver, so Colt resumed manufacturing in 1956 with the Second Generation line of Single Action Army revolvers. These Second Generation Colt Single Action Army revolvers were produced from 1956 to 1974.
The Frontier Scout was born in 1957 and was made until 1970. It was .22 caliber SAA that was scaled down slightly and was lighter than its bigger bore brother. A Third-generation SAA began in 1975, characterized by a change in barrel thread pitch and a solid cylinder bushing replacing the removable/replaceable parts from the first and second generations. The Lawman Series was released in 1969 as part of the series to honor well-known Western lawmen.
