The Arizona Ranger Competition model retains key SAA characteristics, including a single-action-only mechanism with the traditional 4-click hammer. It uses a screw-retained base pin in the blackpowder-frame style, paired with an ejector rod and a full-length housing for positive case extraction.
Construction is all-steel, with a color case-hardened frame and a blued barrel and six-shot fluted cylinder. The plow-handle grip profile and a one-piece checkered walnut grip provide a classic feel and secure purchase.
Sighting equipment is true to the pattern, with a tapered blade front sight and a topstrap groove rear. The 5.5 inch barrel balances carry and controllability while taking advantage of the .357 Magnum chambering.
Markings include an “ARIZONA RANGER” barrel rollmark and a Colt-style two-line patent marking on the frame, along with matching numbers on the frame and cylinder. Italian proof marks and inspection stamps are present, including a circled “23” proof. The factory box label confirms SKU AR401 and UPC 844234240456. This is a reproduction model and a recent release, made in Italy.
