Re: Colt SAA value
Hard to say without better pictures and more information. What caliber? The bottom picture seems to show a blued frame, I think it along with the hammer and trigger should be CC hardened.

Re: COLT SAA IN .44 SPECIAL
Given the rarity I would suggest you contact Colt for a factory letter to ascertain how this revolver left the factory. If it is an aftermarket barrel/cylinder it will greatly downgrade the value.

Thanks Jim. I was thinking about the same, ask 1200, take 1000. If I can't get that I think I will keep it and sell my Series 70. It's nowhere near as pretty as this one.
