Manufactured in 2010, this revolver is chambered in the classic .45 Colt cartridge with a 4 3/4″ barrel and nickel finish. The gun is in Excellent condition, appearing to have seen limited and responsible use. This is THE classic sixgun in the classic SAA cartridge that would be just as great for the collector as for the shooter. Please see our photos and good luck!
