....I think you hit the nail on the head, MCH. I haven't done much CAS in the past two years, but when I started I got a pair of Rodeos from Long Hunter--they're wonderful guns (with jewelled hammers and died elk horn grips, they also don't look bad)---the alure of having saa's made in the old Colt factory on the colt machinery was nice, but still didn't replace having the rampant colt on the gun---by default they wound up competing against Italian (cheaper) guns and even tho cas is still popular, there are only so many saa's that that market will absorb. Still, I wish that I'd purchased another pair of Rodeos.
