I have a pair of Colt Single Action Army revolvers in 45 LC, 7 1/2 inch barrels, action job = smooth as silk. Fun pistols at the range. Shot some cowboy action with them but mostly just shot at the range. With a Dillon reloading rig it is very inexpensive and quick to load up 100 rounds or 200 rounds for some target shooting. I put 12,000 rounds through them in the first 2 years I had them. Also have a Marlin lever action in 45 colt with a Marbles tang sight that is smooth and quick - the peep sight is amazingly accurate and fast shooting at 40 - 50 yards - just put the ghost ring on the target with the front ball on it - over. I also have a Cimarron firearms replica in 357 Mag., that I load 38 specials for. Great bang for the buck in a $450.00 revolver. The best quality being made in the USA right now (IMO) of Single Action Army style revolvers is US Firearms operating out of the old Colt factory in Hartford, Ct. I would like to pick up a brace of those in 38 Spl. Superb quality - available with their 'in house' action job - or send them to a real good smith in Montana.
