Nice old Colt Bruce! Hard to even imagine how many times that gun has been pulled from the holster and fired. Colt SAA's rank up there in my top 3 preferences in gun collecting, along with Parkers and big bore Winchester lever guns and Hi-walls. I only have one SAA - an NRA commemorative .45LC that I bought when you couldn't give them away. I had the gaudy barrel and walnut grips replaced and had them give it the "gunfighter" trigger job. I've not used a slicker and smoother SAA aside from a well worn 1st gen gun. Shoots like a dream. Unfortunately, it's now worth so much as an original NRA gun that I'm hesitant to shoot it and may put the original bbl and grips back on. No pistol is as much fun to shoot as a nice SAA .45. I dispatched a marauding black bear with mine years ago. Very effective...
