Revision as of 22:46, 14 December 2009
The Single Action Army a.k.a. Peacemaker or Frontiersman has been used by the following actors in the following movies, television series, anime, and video games:
For identification purposes, it is preferred the gun is labeled as a "Single Action Army" as opposed to a "Colt 1873" or "Colt Single Action Army" as many companies such as Uberti, Ruger Vaquero, and Beretta have replicated SAAs to the point in which labeling them all as a Colt would be incorrect. Do not label it as a Colt unless 100% positive it IS a Colt.
The Single Action Army is seen fitted with many different types of grips, the most common being wood, Vulcanite (early black plastic), Ivory, Pearl, and Stag Horn. Noting these differences is helpful to those visiting IMFDB, and is thus encouraged.
