Black Powder Frame COLT SAA Peacemaker in .32-20
Antique Single Action Army Made in 1891
Here we present an antique Colt Single Action Army, made in 1891, in Hartford, Connecticut. The Colt SAA has become one of the most iconic firearms in history, especially with regards to the American West and in film. Though Colt enjoyed the largest contracts of any handgun maker during the American Civil War, it had to rely on its array of percussion fired revolvers, namely the 1860 Army, until the Smith & Wesson owned Rollin White Patent expired in 1869. This enabled them to begin making revolvers with completely bored through cylinder chambers in order to utilize modern metallic cartridge ammunition in the most effective manner. In 1869 Colt’s began development of a suitable cartridge revolver in earnest, first coming out with a number of conversions for their percussion lines, until 1872 when they debuted what was to become the Colt Model 1873 Single Action Army in the 1872 U.S. Trials. Needless to say, it won, and became the Army’s revolver of choice. It also became the sidearm of choice for many others like cowboys, guards, lawmen, crooks, shopkeepers and all manner of civilians.
This piece features the Colt Black Powder frame that preceded the more modern “smokeless” frame. The revolver is chambered for .32-20, a very handy smaller bore cartridge that has a following all its own. The top of the barrel reads “COLT’S PT.F.A.MFG.CO./HARTFORD, CT U.S.A.” The side of the barrel is marked “32 W.C.F.” The left side of the frame is marked ““PAT.SEPT.19.1871/JULY 2.72. JAN 19.75”. The grips feature the famous emblem of the rampant Colt.
The overall condition is very good. The metal surfaces retain about 10% of the original factory blue finish. The balance has an even gray patina. The markings are clear and legible. Serial numbers match aside from the grips. The hard rubber grips are in fine condition. The bore is sharply rifled and clean. The action is strong.
This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
