I'm with jarhead... Not a fan, but I'll take a gander at any pretty gals that come along. And these fit that category. Nice looking pieces and some nice engraving.

I like SA colt style 6 shooters. Own a Ruger Vaquero and a single six. Not really into the fancy engraving, but the form of the SA is great.

QK,
Beautiful old Colt's! Where are the pictures from? Several of them look like those pictured in John Kopec's book.

Wow. Just wow. The SAA and the 1911 are truly Colt's crowning acheivements. You just don't see guns that good looking and hard working anymore.

The Colt SAA is a timeless classic. I'll forever regret selling mine, a 1957 vintage 5.5 incher in .44 Special.

Those were sold at auction
I copied the "on line" auction photos for reference photos mostly for the carved grips.
The opening bid prices were unreal. Some up over 100 thou. |
