Description:
This is not that old of a Colt but what is significant is the history behind it. This gun was ordered by "Big Arnold Chernoff" who was a very important figure in the early gun collecting and dealing field. He would have been one of the BIG collector/dealers of the day. Not only was he big in his field but very big in presence being a very very large man at 600+ pounds. An unforgettable figure. This Colt was ordered by Mr. Chernoff and he had it inscribed at Colt in 1967 to Don Stika. Stika was also an important figure in the early gun dealing days. Serial number is 46024SA making it a second generation SAA made in 1967. Cal 45 Long Colt. 5-1/2" bbl. Walnut grips with gold medallions. Comes in the orig presentation case along with the seldom seen cardboard case protector sleeve. This gun is new and unfired. Not even a hint of the cylinder being turned. Truly is NIB! Comes with a Colt Letter and several pictures of Arnold, Don and a lot of the good old boys of the day.
