Colt SAA in .45 in 1979. Purchased in a pawn shop on Yadkin Rd outside FT Bragg. Also got a nice K22. Used my outprocessing check; I had just enough money for gas to get home. Bought several more guns from this pawn shop on another tour several years later.

Still have the Colt? What year was it made? Pictures?
Just a run of the mill 3rd gen Colt. I had Colt fit the ivories (with nickle medallions) when I lived in CT.

Very nice. Thanks for the picture. Is the cylinder bushing removable?
No on the removable bushing. It's an early 3rd gen. Nice case work, fit/finish and it shoots to POA. I'm happy. Colt smoothed up the action and got it to shoot to POA for free when it was in the custom shop having the stocks fitted. Colt used to do that kind of stuff.
