Description
The third generation of the famous Colt Single Action Army (“Peacemaker”) made its debut in 1976, after production of the second generation had ended in 1947. Colt relaunched the model using new tooling and introduced a few internal technical changes, while keeping the classic look of the revolver of the American West.
Main features
