The Colt Single Action Army Revolver is arguably the most iconic American handgun. In the hands of ranchers, cavalrymen, Native Americans, lawmen, and outlaws, the Peacemaker’s legacy was forged out in the hostile American West and continues to gain popularity among today's collectors. Offered here is a very attractive example of the legendary Peacemaker chambered in the iconic .45 LC caliber. The accompanying factory letter states the revolver was shipped on August 5, 1930 to Geller, Ward, & Hasner Hardware of St. Louis, Missouri, the gateway to the West, with a 7 1/2 inch barrel in .45 caliber, blue finish, and type of stocks not listed. This was a single gun shipment. The barrel has the standard one-line Hartford address on top and model and caliber marking on the left side. The left side of the frame has the two-line patent dates marking followed by a Rampant Colt. The matching serial number appears on the frame, trigger guard, back strap, and both grip panels. The matching last two digits of the serial number "04" appear on the back of the cylinder. Matching assembly number "624" is found on the loading gate and rear of the frame.

Excellent, retaining 95% original blue finish with some light spotting and some thinning on the grip straps. The hammer and frame retain 98% vivid original case colors. The grips are also excellent with overall crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. An excellent pre-war Colt SAA that will be a welcomed addition to any collection.
