Engraved Colt 3rd Gen SAA Revolver

Description

This exceptional Colt 3rd Generation Single Action Army (SAA) revolver stands out with its 1981 manufacturing date and the masterful engraving by renowned engraver David Wade Harris. It is chambered in .357 Magnum and features a 7 1/2” barrel with a blade front sight and a six-shot fluted cylinder, making it a unique and desirable piece for any collector or enthusiast.

The revolver features approximately 50% scroll engraving, set against a punch-dot background, with a starburst design at the bottom of the trigger guard. Harris, who signed his work on the butt “DW Harris,” is a student of the famous engraver Weldon Bledsoe, who himself learned from the legendary Cole Agee. This lineage cements the revolver’s heritage in the finest engraving traditions, a fact that will surely resonate with collectors.

This piece retains 99% of its nickel-plated finish, presenting near-excellent overall condition. The two-piece smooth grips feature Colt medallions, though they show some signs of wear, including a small crack at the bottom front of the left grip and a dent on the left point of the toe of the grip frame. Despite these minor imperfections, the revolver’s condition is a testament to its quality.

Despite the minor imperfections, the revolver’s craftsmanship and artistic engraving make it an outstanding collector’s item. The bore is bright with sharp rifling, a testament to its exceptional quality and maintenance. This David Wade Harris-engraved Colt SAA is not just a fine firearm but a durable and valuable piece that has been meticulously maintained over the years.
