Description:
Engraved BLACK POWDER Antique COLT SAA Revolver
Made in 1881 in Hartford, Connecticut
Here we present an antique Black Powder Frame Colt Single Action Army, made in 1881 in Hartford, Connecticut. The Colt “Peacemaker” was introduced in 1873 and has become one of the most iconic firearms in all of history, thanks to its widespread use by the U.S. military, civilians and, more recently, in Western films.
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 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 several 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 one has been engraved and nickel plated on the frame, barrel, cylinder, ejector rod and grip frame. The engraving features heavy scrolls with a punch dotted backdrop. The hard rubber grips feature the rampant colt trademark, as well as a federal eagle on each side.
The overall condition is fine. The metal surfaces are bright. The engravings are clear. The bore is sharp and bright. The hard rubber grips are very good, showing little wear and featuring the iconic Colt emblem as well as an eagle at the bottom. The action on this revolver is excellent. Here is a great opportunity to own an engraved Colt SAA!
