going to pick one up this afternoon. think I done good 250.00
Well I got it home now and it was in pretty good shape a couple small spots that needs cleaning but in all for the money its a heck of a deal. It's ser# has a F at the end and from checking that means its a first run and was made between 1966-67 if I understand right.

It may shoot well, but that's about it,
Buffalo Scout guns are in the 100 range.

It will kill just as [xx(] as any other SAA. I judge firearms on performance. That pistol he is looking at is worth more than 100 dollars. Geesh..

..Not to change the subject, but when were those "Buffalo Scouts" imported? I think that's what I had about 1973-74. It was a lead spitting, misaligned, loose fitting hunk of junk.
From what I could find the buffalo scout was introduce in 1978 and disc. in 1990

You can geesh all you want,,I KNOW it's a COLT,,check statement AGAIN before you spout off,,,and your FIE is that, an FIE and no, it's NOT a Colt SAA. Your performance would be a lead splitting earache with that.

I had one in the 60's I know..Lead splitter,

I had one in the 60's I know..Lead splitter,
..Mine had some sort of "gold" looking finish. Slivers of lead would
catch me in the knuckles and the cylinder gap was wide enough to see
the scenery through. It was my first handgun and my Pops had a fit,
saying I'd shoot my toes off. Think I got about $30 for it in trade.
That's more than it was worth in my mind.
have cured some of the import revolvers by resetting the barrel to 0.003-4" gap and making it an economical priced shooter
..That would have helped if the timing and lockup were better but it wasn't worth the expense. (in my case)
is that the one that is all steel ?
The Scout has an alloy frame. The Peacemaker has a steel frame.
did em myself with a cheap lathe and practice ...not like screwing up a COLT
..I was in my late teens and had no skills nor tools other than a torch, welder and grinder with 12" wheels for sharpening plow shares!

My .357 Has a Steel frame. Grasshopper .. The Colt is not more accurate the German pistol.
Purchased new in the 60's for about $80.00 (if I remember correctly)
Kasey just sold mine, exactly like that, dual cylinder, box, paper work.
A few months ago. I think it went north of $600 if I remember correctly.
Edit: was late fall, bought the Henry mini bolt, and the cricket for the Christmas give away with the spoils.
