SAA dry fire models
« on: March 08, 2022, 04:57:15 PM »
I haven't seen any posts about these guns.  I have tried a standard search of this web site and have, pardon the pun, come up dry. They were introduced by EMF a number of years ago through the influence, from what I learned, of John Bianchi. They are considered  by the ATF as a non gun.  I thought they were a great idea: dry fire with a dummy gun for practice. Practice your spinning with a DG and don't worry about dropping it. If I'm not mistaken, these were only available for a few years.  They are exact replicas of the steel SAA's that pietta makes. I two: a 5 1/2" blue CH, and a 4 3/4" blue CH model.  My son has a 7 1/2" nickel model. 

Are any other members familiar with this variation?

i doubt these are what you meant because they were pot metal construction (got one back in the 70s at the Knotts Berry Farms cowboy town gun shop).

i remember someone selling a cap & ball gun that looked like a peacemaker but that’s probably different as well.

I remember seeing ads for them, but never knew anyone who had one.

These are all steel guns. Not the cheap metal ones imported from Japan of the Replica  model Company in the 70's.
