I had an 1973 Cold Cav copy made for the 100th year anniversary. I also have a cpl USFA Gov inspector series clones, one as original and another Custer version. That Colt was a clunker compared to the USFA. Maybe you want a Colt and thats cool, but give the USFA a look if you want a nice SAA to shoot that is a step above the imports or even some Colts IMO.
