So I am guessing this is a good deal....
Tuolumne Lawman:
I have not owned a "real Colt" since my 1898 vintage one I had in .38WCF, back about 1999. I work at a local gun shop part time, and an opportunity walked in to buy a 1977 vintage Single Action Army with 4 5/8" barrel, blued and color case finish is 99+% with Colt factory black plastic (gutta percha?) grips. It has no box or paperwork, but it will be a shooter for me, so I don't care! We are still negotiating, but looks like it will be around $1200.
Good deal, I assume?
Abilene:
Sounds good to me! What caliber? And it's a Colt, so it's 4 3/4" not 4 5/8" ( :D )
Sounds like the '78 vintage 44 Spcl I bought 20 years ago with no box but looking unfired. I paid $900 back then. $1200 for an SAA in excellent shape sounds pretty awesome these days!
I think the grips are still some kind of rubber but not gutta percha any more.
Tuolumne Lawman:
LOL. I guess 4 3/4". LOL ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
I have never paid this much for a pistol before!

That's a 3rd Generation Colt which is less desirable to some but still a real Colt and most of them are quite handsome to behold. $1200 for a ninety-nine percent 3rd Gen Colt seems like a good price, particularly in this gun starved market.
Oh, and the stocks are indeed some form of plastic these days.
