Description
This is a true piece of American history—a Colt Single Action Army revolver manufactured in 1874, one of the earliest years of production. Known as the “Peacemaker,” this model is considered the quintessential sidearm of the American West and was widely issued to the U.S. Cavalry. This example is marked “U.S.” on the frame, indicating government inspection and military contract origin.
The revolver features a classic 5.5-inch barrel with early single-line Hartford address, walnut grips, and all the correct first-generation features. The patina and wear reflect honest age and use, but the markings remain clear and legible. Serial number 8770 is present, and major components appear correct for an early military-issue SAA. This piece would be the centerpiece of any Western, Cavalry, or antique arms collection.
Whether you’re a historian, advanced collector, or just passionate about legendary American arms, this is an opportunity to own a genuine artifact from the era of the Indian Wars and the American frontier.
