It’s crazy how the 1911 that is still in use today was invented only 40 odd years after the colt single action army.
@ArizonaGhostriders3 жыл бұрын
Both guns are. Colt makes memorable firearms.
@The_Conspiracy_Analyst Жыл бұрын
The 1911 was designed with the popularity of the SAA in mind, so it took some design cues. .45ACP and the barrel length were designed to give similar ballistics to .44-40 or .45LC. It was single action with the hammer exposed and had a half cock. Also like the SAA, the 1911 was initially offered in both .38 and .45 variants.

Well, those settlers and farmers couldn't have tamed the Wild West without one gun in particular; the double barrel shotgun. A large family of settlers likely didn't have a Colt Single Action Army revolver. Nor a Winchester repeater. But practically all of them had a double barrel shotgun. Simple to use, reliable, and affordable. BTW, real nice-looking Colt, Santee. Hope you were able to buff out those scratches.

My ex has a 1st Gen SSA .45 Colt Revolver that his grandfather won in a poker game. It was in France during WWI, and he won it as an IOU from a Texas Ranger. His grandfather and the Ranger exchanged addresses, but the Ranger never resurfaced, although his grandfather tried to find him. But this was the 1920s after a war and it wasn't easy to find someone. The gun got passed down in the family until my husband got it. The Ranger's address was lost sometime in the 50s. I was able to get a Certificate of Authenticity from Colt on the gun and gave it to my husband for Christmas one year. We never could find the Ranger. The gun was part of a shipment from Colt that shipped to St. Louis bound for Texas. The paperwork in St Louis that would have had the buyers name on it was lost in a fire. Oh well, it was a beautiful gun and still was in great shape and was very accurate.

On the topic of better engineered guns, it's a shame that S&W didn't offer the Schofield in .45 Colt. It was the better handgun, especially for cavalry, with it's top break action. It allowed for faster reloads and, with practice, one handed reloads on horseback. The Colt required two hands for reloading and couldn't eject the spent casings at once, like the Schofield could.

I might get a Colt one day, but until then I'll have to stick with the Taylor's & Co./Uberti SAA in 5 1/2" barrel. For some reason I like that barrel length, not to long or short, just the right balance I reckon. Of course, that's just my personal opinion.
@ArizonaGhostriders2 жыл бұрын
Absolutely. Nobody says you have to get any other barrel length. All your preference.

Santee, at some point, you should do a video on the 1875 S&W No.3 "Schofield", it's a favorite of mine next to the good ol' Peacemaker.

It is in appearance. The action is a different, many say improved, version of Colt's. They are a tough gun, I'll tell you that.
