I am new to GunsInternational, but not to the gun trade or to selling firearms online. Legendary Guns of Texas was founded in 2013, and since then we’ve sold hundreds of firearms on the other well?known gun site, without ever receiving a single negative comment. We joined GunsInternational to showcase some of our higher?end and specialty pieces, and we invite you to browse our listings and contact us with any questions.
Up for your consideration is an exquisitely engraved, truly one?of?a?kind Colt Single Action Army revolver, transformed into a Texas heirloom through the hand?cut artistry of Master Engraver David Wade Harris. This special commission features a full?coverage Texas theme, celebrating the heroes, symbols, and history of the Lone Star State.

Across the revolver you will find: Defenders of the Alamo, Early Texas Rangers, Historic Texas cattle brands, Lone Star and Texas Revolution motifs. All engraving is 100% hand?cut with hammer and chisel, no machine, no laser, no shortcuts. It is truly a masterpiece.

Provenance & Background
I purchased this Colt SAA several years ago from a private collection. It came with its original Colt box and paperwork and showed no signs of ever being fired. It did, however, have a few light handling scratches on the blue finish.

For a long time, I asked myself what to do with an almost perfect SAA. The answer became clear: Turn it into something unique, beautiful, and worthy of Texas history.

Living in Texas, I am fortunate to know Master Engraver David Wade Harris of East Texas. His work is highly sought after, with many of his engraved firearms selling for well over $12,000. I drove the Colt to his shop, and together we designed a full Texas?themed engraving that would elevate the revolver into a museum?worthy piece.

The engraving process took over a year, because you can’t rush an artist, especially one who engraves every line by hand. When I finally saw the finished revolver, the result exceeded every expectation. This is, without question, one of the most striking Texas?themed SAA engravings you will ever encounter.
