The Colt SAA .45 was a single action revolver used in the old west and again in the Philippines in the early 1900's. Single action denotes that the hammer must be manually pulled back before the weapon can be fired. The Colt SAA fired a .45 Long Colt, which is roughly the same diameter as the .45 ACP used in the 1911 style pistols but is significantly longer in cartridge length. The Colt SAA fired an older version of the .45 LC which caused less pressure than the modern version. Most .45 LC ammunition being produced at present is not designed for use in the Colt .45 SAA, although many shooters use the ammunition without issue. There have been numerous reports of damage to the firearm when using modern .45 LC ammunition. There are many enthusiasts who continue to use this firearm to date.
