Description
This Colt Single Action Army represents the pinnacle of factory engraving, an authentic Master Factory Class “D” revolver executed to a standard reserved for Colt’s most ambitious presentation arms.
Chambered in .45 Colt, this SAA showcases deep, flowing scrollwork applied across the barrel, frame, cylinder, and major components. The engraving is bold yet refined, with carefully balanced negative space that allows the polished surfaces to breathe. Subtle heat-toned highlights around the frame and loading gate add visual depth, while the darkened cylinder provides a dramatic contrast to the surrounding ornamentation.
Every major component is factory-matched, reflecting the level of precision and care expected of Colt’s Master engraving program. The revolver presents as a cohesive whole; engraving lines align naturally from part to part, reinforcing the sense that this was conceived and executed as a single artistic statement rather than an assembled collection of embellished components.
Accompanied by factory documentation, this Class “D” example stands firmly within Colt’s highest tier of engraved Single Action Army revolvers. It is not merely a decorated firearm, but a true factory-executed presentation piece, built to honor Colt’s engraving tradition and intended for the advanced collector who values originality, craftsmanship, and historical integrity.
A compelling acquisition for any serious Colt collection, this Master Factory Class “D” engraved SAA embodies the artistry, restraint, and authority that define the finest factory-engraved American revolvers.
