In 1913 Colt found themselves with an excess of surplus 1878 Double Action cylinders and they used them to build SAA's longflute. Since they were basically the same dimensions as Single Action cylinders, they decided to make the small modifications required (Namely Bolt notches on the outside periphery) and use them in the Single Actions. Less than 1500 long flute SAA's were built. Since the other model cylinders had already been fabricated with the long flute, those Colt SAA's had that feature. Colt SAA revolvers manufactured between 1913-1915, they produced in all three barrel links a total of 28 guns in the 44 Russian.
