I hear that. If you want quality, a lot of the time you have to get an older version of the same product, which in the end will yield a smaller price, better quality, and overall better enthusiasm over your product. There are exceptions, but not a lot I can think of right now.

Yeah. Any gun today that can even come close to matching original quality is way too expensive. Now that Colt's back in business, they manufacture their guns with the same equipment they used to use, giving the guns original specification. Except in original specification, the SAA cost $20, not $1,020.

Hell, you could buy an original in good condition for that price.
