Colt SAA 3rd Gen Revolver .45 LC

Features:

This is an exquisite Colt Single Action Army (SAA) 3rd Generation Revolver in .45 Colt, manufactured by Colt’s Manufacturing Company in Hartford, Connecticut. The serial number SA46769 confirms production in 1980, as verified by Colt’s serialization records for the 3rd Generation SAA, which began in 1976 with the “SA” prefix. Designed by William Mason and introduced in 1873, the Colt SAA, often called “The Peacemaker,” is the most iconic revolver in history, synonymous with the American West and used by soldiers, lawmen, and outlaws alike. The 3rd Generation, produced from 1976 to the present, revived the classic design with modern manufacturing techniques, maintaining the single-action mechanism and timeless aesthetic. The .45 Colt cartridge, known for its stopping power, remains a favorite for cowboy action shooting and collectors. This revolver’s historical significance lies in its continuation of Colt’s legendary legacy, blending Old West heritage with modern craftsmanship.

This example is in extremely fine condition, showing only a very light turn line on the cylinder and minimal finish losses, reflecting careful handling. The 7 1/2" barrel and case-colored frame retain their vibrant blue and case-hardened finishes, complemented by the Rampant Colt plastic grips, standard for the period. The bore is bright, and the revolver is mechanically excellent, ensuring smooth operation of its single-action mechanism. Housed in an earlier Colt Stagecoach box originally for a .357 Magnum model, this adds a unique collectible aspect, though it is not numbers-matching. All markings, including the Colt logo and caliber designation, are crisp and legible.
