July Smith Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 Looking to purchase a single 3rd gen Colt in 44-40. (Will consider a pair of revolvers if finances allow for it.) Ideally one of the special runs of the black powder frame models. Prefer it to be the 4-3/4" barrel. Prefer new in the box or at least very good condition. Prefer blue and case colors, and honestly prefer the black plastic grips.
Bramble Mountain Buzzard Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 If you find a seller who would rather have cash, I would be willing to buy the coins. He gets the cash. You get the guns. And everyone is happy... Buzzard

July Smith Posted September 30, 2020 Author Posted September 30, 2020 PMs answered. For those with Colts for sale feel free to PM. I have a buyer for the gold if the right pair of Colts turn up.
Mack Hacker, #60477 Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 I am not willing to part with any of my NIB SAA’s to make this trade, but if you are looking for a brace already set up for SASS, I do have a pair of 3rd gen SAAs in the original boxes with action jobs by Boomstick. This action job includes Lassiter short stroke mods. They are 45 Colt I bought them a few years ago when I was considering a switch to shooting two handed. That switch lasted about two stages before I went back to duelist and my Vaqueros

Raritan River Kid SASS #23259 Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 I have one of the runs marked "Colt Frontier Six Shooter" but NOT etched that has ivory handles. It would be pricier. I have to pull it from the safe when I get home later this week if you are interested to get more specifics. Purchased from Harrison Carroll in CA years ago and never fired.

July Smith Posted January 30, 2021 Author Posted January 30, 2021 Bump. Willing to consider other barrel lengths.
Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted January 30, 2021 Posted January 30, 2021 July, just bite the bullet and buy the best condition antique you can find. Maybe Rock Island Auction. The value will only go up even if you shoot it, and if your kids want to go to college bad enough they can get scholarships.

Good idea, though I am afraid of subjecting an antique to my uses in SASS.
