The one that I bought from a pawn shop had a drywall screw holding the grips on. I think @BatteryOaksBilly may have it laying around somewhere if you want to use it.Thanks guys, the next thing is going to be getting some proper grips for it.

Yeah, maybe Mammoth Ivory?............... and don't forget you will need a proper carry rig for that too........... That's not like a common plastic gun........... that thing deserves something "Classy"...............Thanks guys, the next thing is going to be getting some proper grips for it.
I'm not sure what I want in grip material.Yeah, maybe Mammoth Ivory?............... and don't forget you will need a proper carry rig for that too........... That's not like a common plastic gun........... that thing deserves something "Classy"...............
gutta percha, same as original golf ballsWhen Bat Masterson ordered his gun from the factory he ordered the exact configuration as you have there, grips and all.
The first rubberized grips were called gutta percha.
Here you see my nickel guns sporting giraffe bone. They were made from a giraffe I shot some years ago. SAA are very difficult to fit grips to, for custom grips like the bone or Mammoth ivory, you pretty much need to send your gun to the grip maker.I'm not sure what I want in grip material.
Just got to go by and pay for it.
SAA, 4 3/4", 45 Colt and nickel.

I've got some ammo, but always looking for more.Nice! Go big or go home!
I kinda like those grips as they are, personally.
Got ammo? I might be able to dig up a box of cowboy loads to get you started if you can't find any. And I'm starting to reload for it again.
Well, it's mine all mine.
Call and speak to Emily at Nutmeg Sports. Her father was Colt Custom Shop Supervisor for many years. They have done a foot tub full of guns for me. Just Google Nutmeg Sports....sit down....d r o o l 1111Well, it's mine all mine.
Now the search is on for some nice grips.
I have a western holster setup, nothing fancy just black leather.
