COLT SAA .45-5.5 "4.5 mm Diabolo CO2 This is a wonderfully made windbreaker, is a faithful replica of the legendary Colt Saa , a revolver that changed the face of the wild west.

Metal design

The revolver has a heavy design made almost entirely (except for the lapads of the handle) with heavy alloy and steel . This construction ensures reliable use and affects the felt revolver weight of over 860 g .

The windbreaker uses a 5.5 -inch threaded barrel , thanks to which we can shoot at more distances after a short training after a short training and try to shoot.

The classic nature of the revolver is perfectly emphasized by the effective nickel -plated finish and polymer handle cladding that resemble ivory bone . Just like in a firearm, The revolver handle has an optimal angle , which affects the comfort and natural grip of the windbreaker.

All mechanisms, i.e. trigger, drum, tap and charging port flap are perfectly folded and are characterized by a high work culture.

Rotary drum charged with scales

After placing the diabolo shot in the scales, just load them into the drum, after closing the charging port, the windbreaker is ready to shoot. The scales are reusable, but for greater comfort it is worth buying an additional set, which significantly accelerates charging and play level.

Powering CO 2

The assembly key was permanently attached to the cladding , thanks to which it is always at the windbreaker, which makes us avoid the prosaic problem associated with forgetting the tool necessary to replace the capsule.

Single Action trigger

The revolver uses the classic trigger mechanism of SA (Singla Action) , which means that the shot requires a manual tap tension, identically as it was in the western color.

Despite this functionality the revolver is characterized by high rate of fire, which depends only on the skills and training of the shooter . When transporting or carrying , the trigger mechanism can be blocked with a setting fuse located in the lower part of the skeleton.

In 1872, a Peacemaker revolver was created at Colt Patent Patent Patent Company, which was introduced under the designation of the Single Action army for the armament of the American army in the following year. Colt Saa also achieved an impressive commercial success.

In addition to orders for the army, the factory sold tens of thousands of these revolvers to settlers colonizing the wild West. The revolver production was stopped only in 1942, because the production lines were focused only on war needs.

In the late 1940s, the iconic Saa revolver has returned to production and is produced in various versions to this day.
