My only SAA is a 125th anniversary made in 1961 with gold plate trigger, hammer, grip frame and blued receiver. Came into a gun store a friend worked in 15 years ago sans presentation box and it had been fired. I picked up from her 2 years ago for $800. Figured the price was right.
I’m afraid zer0 Holder et al are there for the long haul. Could be wrong but zer0 fired a load of generals who disagreed with him. Now he has toadie generals to protect his interest.
So lock and load. MOLON LABE. Later
- Run a check on selling prices of gold or silver coins in the last 8 years and compare it to the prices Colt SAA’s are over that same 8 years
- As much as I appreciate (and collected) antique (pre-1899) Remington and Smith & Wesson revolvers it is undeniable that antique Colt SAA’s have increased and have stayed at much higher values while precious metals remain at a plateau providing security but not close to matching the market for Colt SAA revolvers
- Gotta run; expecting news from a contact about two very rare Bisley items
