While perusing the auction side I came across this Colt new model SAA. What caught my attention is that it has a loading gate but not an extractor...neat little gun.

    Yep, Sheriffs model is what they're called with the short barrel. I've got a Ruger Vaquero .45 Colt in a Sheriff's model.

    Nice

    Plus yours has an ejector which is a big plus IMO, without it you either take the cylinder out or use a stick to push out the empty's.

    They're comfortable to shoot and accurate. They're built like a tank so I don't think you could tear one up unless you really tried. I used to use it along with my other Ruger Vaquero .45 Colt to shoot in SASS matches back about 20 years ago.

    The new ones they sell today are slimmer and closer to the size of a Colt SAA which a lot of people like better. Mine are the older heavier models.

    Nice, but I avoid the sellers that throw in bait words like Python to get more lookers at their offers. If I am looking for a Python, I don't want other things clogging up my search.
