Old Colt SAA

[Pulp]

View attachment 209682

This was 38/40 caliber.

Probably got a bit more than pocket change if I was a guessing man! . I’d love to have a .38-40, but I also like to eat and have a roof over my head. Bad priority I reckon.

Isn't it stamped 1975?

Isn't it stamped 1975?

2 fidget year, so it could be 1875 or 1975. Jan 19. 75 and Jul 2. 72 I think it’s a separator

What are the grips made of? I would love to have either a 1875 or 1975

Very cool find! You definately have to shoot it! There's no feeling like it. I have one from 1876 that I take out once in a while to fog mosquitoes. Black Powder only in that one please! Here's a pic of mine.

Those are patent dates. Pretty much all Colt SAA have those dates in that format. The Clone SAA usually only have the 1871 and 72 dates.
Says:
"PAT SEPT. 19, 1871
JULY 2, 72, JAN. 19, 75"
