Single Action Army

The Single Action Army a.k.a. Peacemaker or Frontiersman has been used by the following actors in the following movies, television series, anime, and video games:

Colt Single Action Army with 4.75" barrel, case colored and blued, referred to as "Quick-Draw" or "Civilian" model - .45 Long Colt

Colt Single Action Army with 5.5" barrel known as the "Artillery" model. The most common of the SAA revolvers as it is just the right length. - .45 Long Colt

Single Action Army with 5.5" barrel aka "Artillery" model with wooden grips - .45 Long Colt (this is a Cimarron reproduction - and an actual movie gun) Note lack of 4th screw on revolver frame in front of cylinder. The Colts all have this.

Colt Single Action Army with 7.5" barrel known as the "Cavalry" model - .45 Long Colt

2nd Generation Colt Single Action Army with 7.5" barrel known as the "Cavalry" model - Nickel plated model - .45 Long Colt

Colt "New Frontier" Single Action Army with ivory grips and adjustable target sights - .45 Long Colt

Bisley model Colt Single Action Army with 7.5" barrel - .45 Long Colt

Bisley model Colt Single Action Army with 5.5" barrel known as the "Bisley Colt". Note distinct grip and hammer shape - .45 Long Colt

Colt Single Action Army with 12" barrel known as the "Buntline Special" - .45 Long Colt

For identification purposes, it is preferred the gun is labeled as a "Single Action Army" as opposed to a "Colt 1873" or "Colt Single Action Army" as many companies such as Uberti, Ruger Vaquero, and Beretta have replicated SAAs to the point in which labeling them all as a Colt would be incorrect. Do not label it as a Colt unless 100% positive it IS a Colt. In addition there needs to be made clear a distinction between two types of frames for all SAA type guns. The first is the standard (and ubiquitous) cross pin frame. This is evident by what looks like a screw protruding from the left side of the frame just in front of the cylinder. In order for the cylinder to be released the crosspin is depressed and then this frees the the cylinder rod which can then be pulled from the front of the frame thus the cylinder can be removed completely from the frame for cleaning etc. The second, is the older black powder type frame, which uses a conventional threaded screw which is on the underside of the frame in front of the cylinder, the cross pin core design purpose was just to facilitate easier disassembly of the gun. The crosspin frame wasn't widely available until the late 1890's.

The Single Action Army is seen fitted with many different types of grips, the most common being wood, Vulcanite (early hardened black rubber, often cosmetically duplicated via black plastic), Ivory, Pearl, and Stag Horn. Noting these differences is helpful to those visiting IMFDB, and is thus encouraged.
