Revolver Colt Single Action Army cal. 45 Colt #90030SA § B ACC

Starting price 600 EUR
Result:
850 EUR

Barrel length 19 cm (7,5"), weight 1,17 kg, German proof 1979, condition 1.
Nickel plated version with horn grips, in original box (over box with styrofoam insert, quite tattered condition) with instructions. Factory nickel plated model of the classic Colt Single Action Army model 1873 with 7,5 inch barrel length. The typical revolver of the "Wild West" for decades!
In 1846/47 Samuel Colt designed his first production-ready revolvers, still with percussion ignition. In 1848 the first factory was built and Colt has been one of the most important manufacturers of revolvers ever since. But it was not until the designs of J.M. Browning (Mod. 1895 and M1911) and Eugene Stoner (M16) that Colt celebrated its greatest commercial successes, becoming one of the standard bearers of the US armed forces. In the meantime, Colt has become a part of the CZ Group.
