Does this count? It's a 1957 vintage Frontier Scout - .22 and .22 mag.

Here's a Cimarron Model P and a Colt Lightning (hey, the rifle is single action, right?)

Those count for sure!

I have some slightly fuzzy photos of several Colt SAA's in my computer, but can't forward on url. They're collectable and one is a factory converted Bisley, one of a kind. Is there any way for someone to post them for me if I send a few photos through an email?

These are some beautiful pistols y'all are posting!

 

[gunsmokeTPF]

The center Uberti was done very nicely. They gave it the black powder frame with bullseye ejector and one piece grips. There should be a 3 line patent date along with the serial # on the cylinder, but my eyes are going and can't tell, but even if not it certainly has that early 1870's appearance along with the finish applied. That's as close to a 1st generation as you're gonna get. From a short distance it sure looks like an old colt. Very nice and the others are as well.

One new(2006) plain one is all I can afford now, but I'm planning on a 5.5" Nickel one in the future.

My 2006 made Colt SAA, is one of the finest built ones I've ever seen and my Dad has had over a dozen 1st generation SAAs at once before, so I've those and quite a few other 2nd and 3rd generations to compare it to. They did an excellent job on the one I own.

SAA's are beautiful guns but I know little about the finer details. What is the "B-P frame" I often see referenced?

 

[zullo74]

I'm posting these at the request of gunsmokeTPF. They are his guns.....

The 1st picture is a Colt SAA 45LC mfg 1891. Was owned by Texas cowboy who was a movie xtra.

2nd is a 1970 2nd gen Colt SAA 45LC bought from Abercrombie & Fitch and customized.

3rd is a Cimarron Flat Top Target 44-40 with Alfonse of Hollywood rig and 100 year old buckle.

4th Colt Bisley 32-20 mfg 1906 and converted by Colt to SAA using trigger guard and backstrap from 1904 SAA. Only factory example known by me.

 

[towboat-er]

Those are beauties. Awesome 6 shooters!!!!!!!!!

 

[gunsmokeTPF]

Thanks Zullu and Towboat_er for posting for me. There is a slight mixup. The 1st example is actually the converted Bisley and the last is the 1891 example. I'm sorry the photos had been taken so poorly, but it's better than nothing I guess. Thanks all again.
