Other Variants of the Single Action Army
We will be spending an eternity getting all the SAA entries
To get this current we are missing many instances of the SAA in the countless Westerns (or even non-westerns) films and Television shows, going all the way back to the Silent era. It will take a long time, but we must do it. Anyone familiar with the SAA's usage in film/television will immediately know that we've only mentioned a FRACTION of the times the SAA has appeared over the last 100 years of cinema. MPM2008
Makes me want to go back to bed just thinking about it. If I wasn't at work right now I would. Big job ahead of us.--Jcordell 16:12, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
Colt Bisley
The Colt Bisley was not produced in Bisley. Bisley is not a factory, it's a world-famous shooting range and mecca for competitive shooting, so when they introduced a target model they called it the Bisley model. The only British-made Colts were percussion revolvers made between 1854-1856.
Fun little quote about the Single Action Army
Eh, I just thought I'd throw this in for a little bit of fun and praise to this firearm:
"Be not afraid of any man no matter what his size; when danger threatens, call on me, and I will equalize."

Appearances
Wouldn't it make sense, regarding the sheer amount of appearances that this gun has, for someone to put them in lists by variant, then alphabetize those? --Sangheili1155 (talk) 15:16, 16 November 2012 (EST)
Ammo
How common is .45 Long Colt today? Spartan198 (talk) 17:36, 5 March 2013 (EST)
It's common enough honestly depends on the loads you're looking for, most of the online stuff is out but you'd be able to find some at local gunshops. --Black Irish Paddy (talk) 17:45, 5 March 2013 (EST).
- What exactly are "loads?" - User: 2wingo
The rounds, ammunition, cartridges, et al. Basically it's what you load in the brass to shoot, lots of different loads for .45 Colt. Hunting, target shooting, self defense. The sky's the limit dude. --Black Irish Paddy (talk) 10:51, 7 March 2013 (EST).
Fanning the hammer
Can this be done with any single-action revolver, or only on older models without the modern internal safeties? - User: 2wingo
