COLT “PEACEMAKER” .32-20 WCF Single Action Army Revolver SAA C&R 1st Gen
Iconic Colt 6-Shooter Manufactured in 1900
Description: COLT “PEACEMAKER” .32-20 WCF Single Action Army Revolver SAA C&R 1st Gen Iconic Colt 6-Shooter Manufactured in 1900 Here we present a C&R First Generation Colt Single Action Army Revolver in .32 WCF, manufactured in 1900 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. Total production numbers for the “First Generation” (c. 1873-1940) Colt Single Action Army reached 357,859. These continued to be relied upon as well as “hot-rodded” by the likes of Elmer Keith, Skeeter Skelton, many other lawmen and gun writers of the time. Calibers, with at least thirty in all, ranged from .22 rimfire through .476 Eley, with approximately half, or 158,884, including Bisley and Flat Top Target, chambered for .45 Colt. The next most popular were the .44-40 Winchester Center Fire (.44 WCF) at 71,392, the 38-40 (.38 WCF) at 50,520, the .32-20 Winchester (.32 WCF) at 43,284, and the .41 Colt at 19,676. 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 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. The overall condition is good. Original nickel finish. The action has all four clicks and holds all three positions, remains strong and crisp. The bore is dim with thin rifling.
