Colt Single Action Army .357 Mag SN 53831SA
'Second Generation' Single action six-shot revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, circa 1970. Colt ceased production of the SAA at the beginning of WWII with no plans to restart production after the war, but due the increased popularity of western films they began manufacturing the SAA again in 1956. Features a blued & case hardened finish, 5 1/2" barrel with single line address, blade front sight, square notched rear sight, ejector rod, fluted cylinder, smooth trigger, knurled hammer spur, and two-piece checkered black hard rubber grips(marked "COLT'S HTFD, CONN") with federal eagle & Rampant Colt decor. Serial numbers match on the frame, grips(last three numerals scratched onto the back side of both panels), backstrap & triggerguard(found under the left grip.) Revolver exhibits approximately 88% of it's original finish showing muted case colors, light muzzle wear, scattered handling marks and light scattered oxidation on the frame. Action is crisp with tight lock-up, bore is bright with sharp rifling & minor traces of surface rust towards the muzzle, and the hard rubber grips are very good with some minor losses. Condition is NRA very good. ***Modern Firearm***
