Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Single Action Army (also known as the Model P, Peacemaker, M1873, Single Action Army, SAA, ) is a single-action revolver with a revolving cylinder holding six metallic cartridges. It was designed for the U.S. government service revolver trials of 1873 by Colt's Patent Firearms Manufacturing Company, today Colt’s Manufacturing Company, and adopted as the standard military service revolver until 1892. It is perhaps the most copied, fraudulently modified to replicate an original Colt SAA than any other revolver made. The Third Generation began in 1976, characterized by a change in barrel thread pitch and a solid cylinder bushing replacing the removable/replaceable parts from the first and second generations. This Generation of production began with ser. no. 80,000SA, and reached 99,999SA in 1978. At this point, the SA suffix changed to a prefix beginning with SA01,001.
Everyone should own a Colt Single Action Army revolver, and this particular one from Colt's Custom Shop would be a great addition to any collection. This revolver was manufactured in 1983 and is a rare Colt Armory Edition, with only 500 made, 250 finished in blue and case color and 250 finished in nickel. The Colt Armory Edition is hard to come by and comes in a wooden presentation case with an extra cylinder chambered in .45 Colt and a copy of "The Colt Armory" by Ellsworth S. Grant. This exquisite piece would definitely make a great showpiece in your collection.
Condition/Contents:
This example is in PHENOMENAL condition, showing no evidence of consumer use or handling that we can see! This example will ship with the matching factory-labeled shipping box, the matching factory-labeled box, factory paperwork, the original wooden presentation case with the original .45acp additional cylinder, and the included copy of “The Colt Armory” by Ellsworth S. Grant! The condition is what we believe to be New Old Stock, showing no evidence of consumer use or handling that we can see.
