What would be a reasonable price for a solid shooter in the various gens? I understand that price will very a lot depending on condition and countless other variables, I have seen prices form about $1,000 to over $10,000. What is serial number that I need to be after in order to safely use smokeless rounds? Other than the date they were manufactured what else is different between the 3 generations?Īs a shooter which generation is preferred and why?Īt this point I will only be shooting smokeless powder at cowboy velocities, but I read somewhere that first generation guns before a certain serial number cannot be shot with smokeless. I am not looking for collector guns, I want to actually shoot them and they need to be in 44-40. I know very little about the different generations and was amazed at the wide range of prices.


I recently started thinking that I should have a real colt SAA or probably a pair of them.
