Title: SAA Cylinder Base Pin
Post by: MikeM. on December 20, 2024, 05:38:18 PM
 Where can I get a correct original Colt style base pin for my EMF (Armi San Marco) Hartford model with old black powder style screw type pin retainer? I need one that is blued and in great shape because my 1994 made gun is unfired. I believe this should have a hole in the middle of the head but somebody correct me if I'm wrong please. Anybody maybe have one to spare?

I just read yesterday an article about Colt collecting,  I  think it said some had the hole in the end and some didn't. I think if you find a Colt part in the condition you want it's gonna cost you!  Good luck.

 :) Hey Abilene ;)

A question > > totally off the rails, but what is the Item Number prefix at Cimarron for Pietta Single Action Pistols??  I failed to write it down and I have the memory of a Gnat. Thanx!!

Ubertis are MP and CA p/n prefix mostly, might be a few others, Piettas all start with PP, as far as I know.
