Built in the USA as a Third Generation Single Action Army, this full-size revolver follows the classic 4.75 inch configuration. The barrel is correctly roll-marked with "COLT SINGLE ACTION ARMY .357 MAGNUM." and the top address, and the six-flute, blued steel cylinder matches the traditional pattern.
The frame wears a color casehardened finish, contrasted by a blued barrel and cylinder. The hammer shows bright-polished sides with a checkered spur, and the revolver uses the standard spring-loaded base pin latch with a knurled base pin head.
Operation is single-action only with a spurred hammer and a six-round cylinder. Sighting is traditional: a fixed blade front sight paired with a top-strap groove, square-notch rear.
Custom touches include aftermarket ivory grips with inlaid five-point star medallions (described as ivory). As a late Third Generation example with S-prefix/A-suffix serialization format, it aligns with known features from this production period.
