Description
Made in 1995, this Colt 3rd Gen Single Action Army Revolver isn’t just a tribute to Old West heritage—it’s a striking reminder that beauty and function can absolutely go hand in hand. With its smooth single-action mechanics and timeless profile, it blends traditional Colt styling with the kind of craftsmanship that makes collectors pause and take a second look.
Let’s talk about the details—because they’re worth it. The revolver features a blade front sight and a frame-notch rear, classic in style but still surprisingly practical at the range. What really catches the eye, though, is the “C” grade floral scroll engraving. Set against a punch dot background, the engraving dances across the metal surfaces with a hand-engraved charm that feels more art than utility. It’s not just decoration—it’s storytelling in steel.
The barrel carries engraved address markings and caliber specs, elegantly wrapped in a ribbon motif that speaks to the pride Colt put into every line and curve. And yes, that luxurious nickel finish? It’s every bit as striking in person as it sounds.
This revolver comes with its original Colt blue box and shipping carton—both still in great shape. They’re not just packaging; they’re part of the story. Inside, you’ll find all the factory-marked details—barrel length, caliber, black powder frame callout, grip type, and engraving notes—all carefully printed and preserved.
Mechanically, it’s as smooth as the day it left the factory. The finely checkered grip offers both aesthetic appeal and practical comfort, whether you’re admiring it behind glass or holding it in your hand.
All in all, this Colt 3rd Gen Single Action Army isn’t just a firearm—it’s a slice of history wrapped in craftsmanship. Whether you’re adding it to a serious collection or finally picking up the showpiece you’ve always wanted, this one checks all the boxes.
