So, over on gunbroker I saw a couple consecutive numbered 3.5" Colt SAA beauties with full legnth ejector rod housings for sale. Are these a new series? Anyone else seen these on the shelf anywhere? I really like them a lot--always loved the sherriff model, but the lack of an ejector rod made its use more akward.
Anyway, just curious of folks have seen these around and know if new series or limited special run.
Thanks,

That is a great looking six-gun, I really like the front sight & the Ivory really sets it all off. Thanks for sharing. How does it shoot?
Thanks Frank

Shooting at 15yds. offhand it will do 1 1/2" groups using 8grs. of Unique behind Hornady's 255gr. swaged .454 dia. bullet.

The Colt Custom Shop fabricated the front sight on my request it's not a normal catalog option for the SAA.

I do not have the consecutive link, would have to search gunbroker. The listing is ended as I didn't want a pair--but maybe now a I do.

i've always had lousy luck using GB's search engine. never seems to find what i'm looking for. poorly designed and too frustrating.

rep1954,
That's a really nice little Colt. But the front sight is what intrigues me. If it's OK, I'd like to save your pics for the future. That front sight would solve a lot of ailments caused by miss indexed front sights.

Fireblued screws?
That front sight is some good gunsmithing.
