Well, It kind of is. Not too long after they started making all the parts domestically, I ordered this revolver and wrote it up for gunblast.com. USFA links to that article on their Pre-War window.
I had been shooting first and second gen colts a friend owns and the occasional Uberti and finally decided I needed a really good one for myself. The choice was either a second generation colt or a USFA. The only thing Ive done to it is to replace the trigger bolt spring with a trapper wire. this reduced the pull to a few ounces under two pounds and this, along with finallly figuring out proper trigger finger placement, helps me overcome my left/low shooting tendencies. At first, I didn' much appreciate the wider front sight on the USFA (wider than late first and second generation colts but it works well for me. I have no complaints about this revolver except that the shiney color case treatment sometimes flairs the sight picture for me in bright sunlight. I can live with that.
