River Jordan, SASS 18742 Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 I have a fantastic 1873-1973 Colt Peacemaker Centennial for sale. What is great about this one is that when I got it it had been shot so I bought it as a shooter but actually only shot it a few times and only then in a single match. As you may know these guns are true second generation Colts and are faithfully correct in most ways to a a US Cavalry Colt. Chambered in 45 Colt of course. You will not regret taking it to the next match as it has a great action job by Curly Bill Kelly here in TN. $ 1775 plus domestic shipping River Jordan SASS 18742 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Hombre Sin Nombre Posted July 21, 2019 Share Posted July 21, 2019 There are some really knowledgeable Colt folks that believe this model is the very best 2nd gen Colt every made, and easily rivals the first gens. I just bought one a few weeks ago, or I’d be all over it, especially considering how long it took me to find mine. Now if it were the mate in 44-40.....

levi littleton Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I'd think a guy would want a pair of the Colt's 1873 in 45. Hard to find one. Even harder to find 2 Nice gun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowhouse Sam # 25171 Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 It was Mike Venturino that declared the Peacemaker Centennials to be the most accurately made blackpowder models....maybe the best period of all Colt SAA's. There is a Shooting Times article somewhere to that effect. When you examine one you see why he said that....I sure like mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two definitely makes a nice match though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

River Jordan, SASS 18742 Posted July 25, 2019 Author Share Posted July 25, 2019 I actually have a 2008 Frontier six shooter that is basically the same as the 1973 guns except in blue and CC. It was tuned by Bob Munden and I have all the papers including the test target he shot with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a bit of a niche market though. As I said before, those are perhaps the best version of single actions colt ever made. Shooters want them for that certainly, but tend to spend less. Collectors want them too, but then they have to be NIB and unfired. Yours are somewhere in that middle ground. I’d be all over them if I hadn’t gotten a very similar deal recently. I think yours are more than reasonably priced, but this might be the wrong venue. Did you try over at the colt forum classifieds? A bit of a larger market for colts over there. Good luck.
