@@SuperMikeFender not if I shoot it enough
Nobody cares about your stupid video games
I don't know how many times I've re-watched these single action videos. I just can't get enough of them.
Cheers, Hickok45
I hear Alex Baldwin is good with these
Revolvers are one of the best handguns in my opinion
Grandpas are proud creatures. They prefer to hunt alone.
Underrated comment
i think i mean ocelots lmfao
Could watch this stuff all day. :) ...I'd just like to thank the guys like Bud's Gun Shop and Federal, because if it wasn't for your support we might not get our fix of gunluvin'! Thanks, we do appreciate what you do for Hickok45.
Stephen Beat
I agree 100%. I really think he could have his own TV show. He could pick up where Lee Emery left off with mail call. But I really don't think that's hickok's speed. He loves his range and he loves to shoot and he shares it with us. If he did a TV show there be too much BS for him.
I guess that's what we all love about Hickok45. As Lynyrd Skynyrd would say he's a simple man.
...They call me Revolver Ocelot

You're pretty good
"This is the Colt Single Action Army, the single greatest handgun ever made... now i'm going to show you why the call me Revolver"
"We may just stay out here a few more hours and shoot all of them"..... It would be awesome if you made that a live stream series.....maybe once a month, not really reviewing guns but more like "Shooting the breeze" combined with some range time....people would like it, I'm sure.
That's a really nice collection you have there. I'd love to have a Colt SAA one day.
"BIG IRON ON HIS HIP INTENSIFIES"
yes
"Six shots. I've got six shots."
It's a nice gun, I'll give you that. But the engravings gives you no tactical advantage whatsoever. Unless you were planning to auction it off as a collector's item.
I love seeing these vintage guns in Action.
Hickok.....I don't think I'm just speaking for my self but even if you made a 2 hour video with these beauties ....I would watch with a smile! Thank you to you and John.
My grandfather was born in the 40s he had many rifles handed down through the family but the first handgun he ever owned my great grandfather gave him was the 1956 colt single action that he handed to my father before his passing who just recently handed it to me and after all those years she's still a beauty to behold and i wouldn't sell it for any amount of money thanks hickok45 for the history lesson and general knowledge i should know thanks i appreciate it
Very good shooting Mr. Hickok, I have always loved the single action too.
I love the Colt Peacemakers and I am fortunate to own 4 first generations (when they were still affordable) and 1 second generation. The Colt 1873s are part of our American heritage.
Never saw the 5 or 6 video, so I had to pause and go watch. Such a great informational video and a great safety video.
There's nothing like a good ol' Colt
yes
Hi there, first of all i'd like to thank you Hickok45 for all your great video's. I enjoy 'em very much. You're also a good teacher/instructor for me on handling and enjoying firearms with common sense. I just like your style. And yes..them Colt Single Actions are not only gorgious, but also badass and i love 'em too. Life is good indeed partner ;) Thanks again. Love the history behind it too by the way. Thanks for sharing that. Greetings from Europe.
Love your single action videos!!
My Dad, well he’s my uncle but he feels like my dad because he raised me. He was born in 1956. He’s a great man. When I was younger I saw Tombstone for the first time. He reminds me of Wyatt Earp. To beat it all the family calls him Kurt. I love single actions. I don’t have a Colt yet, but if I get the money to get one I want to find one made in 1956 or 1993 for the year I was born in. Every Colt you show on here I drool on the screen lol. I love this video the most.
Great video with a good history lesson to go with it Keep them coming
great video!, as always... In between colt moving to WW2 arms and 1956, there was a company based out of LA named Great Western Arms. They used a good (or all) portion of the design of the colt sa to make theirs. These were used in many of the movies we both grew up with. I was just passed down from my father a GW 357 Atomic (Magnum), what a great piece of history, shoots great, both magnums and 38 spcl
I really enjoy your vídeos you explain very well the functions and how to use the weapon never stop :)
stay old school Hickok...life is good. nice guns always good to see you bringing the old dogs out.
ENJOYED GREATLY. THANKS gary
The noise when the barrel moves and the cartridges fall are 💯
One of the best guns ever made...and probably the most fun to shoot!
You’re pretty good. Just what I’d expect from the man with the same code as the boss. -Revolver Ocelot
I've never found a Colt clone yet that sounds exactly like a Colt Single Action, good video thanks for sharing.
I love the videos! I just ordered my first pistol, a Taurus G2S, from buds on 8/4. Should be here in a couple days!
They do transport one's mind to a different era. Aug 2nd, 1876 for example, not the best day for Hickok. I get that feeling when I'm just cleaning my old guns. I do prefer these days though, life is certainly less difficult now. Have a great day Hickok and John. Thank you .
I just shot my first machine gun at buds gun shop I would have never stop their if it wasn't for you and your channel thanks for everything you do
I'm watching this in 2024 . March 22nd. 6 years later. I just bought a 1873 U S cavalry clone from Uberti. Love it so far. The front sight is a bit difficult for me to see with my old eyes. But it feels great in my hand fit and finish is better than the pietta.
*Metal Gear Solid reference*
Nice look at and discussion of a fine old piece of Americana. Love, love, love the Model P. Cheers.
OMG another revolver video? is that a sign of something? After I finish my first AR-15 build I'm definitely buying revolver !!!!!!
Everybody has discovered the fun of an AR15, including me, but there are still folks out there who just might never encounter the beauty, history, and enjoyment of a fine revolver if we don't work on it. :-) Actually, it's just the results of my extreme love of revolvers and historic firearms. That's why our viewers will always be subjected to plenty of revolvers and muzzleloaders.
And that's why I watch you religiously. We share a love for nice revolvers and historic firearms, pretty much the only guns I care to own.
Screen I bought a roger new vaquero after watching hickok45. I’ll yell you it’s by far my favorite gun. Sure I’d love a colt but it’s out of my price range at the time.
Nothing like bp and single action revolvers.
Wow, Hickok45 i would love to have a Colt single action revolver. I have my Dads Ruger New Vaqureo 357 Magnum and i absolutely love that revolver. By far my favorite revolver i have in my collection. Awesome review Sir
That 1956 2nd has a very high polish finish and a mighty black looking bluing on it for that era. Very fresh looking too, especially compared to the case colors. Sure seems to shoot well.......... Thanks for a very enjoyable video.
Beautiful revolvers. I have always wanted 1, but alas it has just never happened. Price alone dictates that it probably never will.... Thanks for the upload Hikock 👍👍
I remember a revolver like this being used in one of my favorite video games. I was hooked in my youth when I would see gems like this. I mean years later I got a taste of reality when I got around to shooting a few shotguns and a British .303. I love your channel cause half of the firearms you show I can't get where I am keep making amazing content.
Love your videos sir!
I have a 2nd gen 1st year Colt SAA .45 long colt. I picked it up several years ago. I had a kel tec or Ruger 380, I don't remember which, that I had listed for sale. I was contacted by a younger guy that wanted to trade the SAA for the 380. I knew absolutely nothing about those guns but I was smart enough to know being Colt it was a better trade for me. I asked the guy why he wanted to trade it. He said that it was passed down to him from his grandfather and that when he shot with his friends they gave him a hard time about shooting it. He said he wanted a newer auto pistol. I actually tried to talk him out of trading it based on the sole fact that it was his grandfather's. I knew it was Colt and probably old being his grandfather owned it so I knew it was worth more than my gun but had no clue what the value was. Well, after trying for a few minutes to change this guys mind because I couldn't imagine trading something a grandparent left me, he was sure he wanted my 380. Couple of weeks later I shot about 12 rounds through it and enjoyed it. Several months later we went on vacation and my father in law asked me to bring it to a gun shop where we were going, to get info about the SAA. The guy behind the counter asked about it, seemed to like it and asked how I acquired it. I can still remember the dumbfounded look of disbelief when I told him the story. He called another employee over and asked that I repeat the story and I got another look of disbelief. Then he told me what he valued the gun at and I had a look of disbelief lol. That was probably about 10 or so years ago. I still have it in the safe where she sits and I only get her out every now and then to look at. This video has made me wonder what the value may be now.
Brian Ray I got a 380 I'll trade you for it. ;-)
Love them, every colt revolver I look at is awesome
Just love revolvers, such a classic stylish gun.
The case hardening on these old guns is beautiful. Much prettier than the receiver of the Winchester 1890 takedown that I learned to shoot as a kid.
LONG LIVE HICKOK!!!!!
"Smoke a little pot" You crack me up Hickok.
I'm glad we still have these single actions Downunder.
I could not afford a Colt, so I picked up a Taylor's Smokewagon (tuned Uberti). Great fun, and now one of my favorites. Dead on with 255 gr lead reloads.
I'm wearing a 1964 SAA. Thanks for the Video.
Wow. Just looked them up. Arnd $1,800 each. Guess you pay for good old quality. Thank you for all your videos. Hope you have a good day and be safe and wish you and your family a lifetime of happiness and health
A nice 2nd gen for 1800 is a good deal.
Hi hickok, I love what you do, and very informative I might add.. . Have you ever done a review on a bluntline? I can't seem to find one.
I prefer the Old West cartridges, .45 Colt, 44-40, 38-40, even 32-20.
I could watch this guy all day.
The Colt single action army revolver, the most beautiful revolver 🔫 in the world!
If every video was a single action one I’d still watch.
Great Video Sir
That 2nd generation is phenomenal!!!!!
Colt SAA and Winchester mod 1873. My two favorite cowboy guns.
Hickok, Tombstone ammo is my sole choice for my SAA. Heads up when you go to Tombstone next. They have moved across the street, next door to Doc Holliday’s Saloon.
i love the sound, its so realistic
I know this is from 5 years ago, but it is new to me. Enjoyed the video. I recently was given this same gun from my father, who retired from law enforcement in 1982. I myself retired from law enforcement in 2005. He is now 93 and most of his good years a behind him. Thought you might enjoy the story behind the gun.........In 1956 he was a very young officer for a local police department in Oregon. A hardware stored was burglarized of many guns. The suspect was eventually caught and the many guns were returned from evidence after the case was adjudicated. He was assigned to return the evidence. When he returned the evidence, this one Colt SAA .38 Special 4 3/4 inch barrel, SN 6***SA, stood out. He asked the owner if he could buy it and the owner said yes. They worked out an arrangement of $10 a month until it was paid off, which was about a year. I think he said it was around $125.00. So he has had that gun virtually from day one. Now the other day he brought it out of the closet and passed it down to me. He is still a gun collector, but I had not seen this one before. He then proceeded to tell me the entire story behind it which took about an hour (you got the short version). It was one of those special moments in life between a father and a son. I am a winchester guy and don't know much about colts. So in the process of learning and reading about this gun I came across this video. It's been a fun couple of days learning about the gun and having the full story behind it. Thanks for your videos as it has been very enjoyable for me to learn more about these revolvers.

STOP
What beautiful single
Actions.
I love revolvers and other guns from Wild West period ❤
Of course the TV Westerns and John Ford movies are what got me hooked.
Hello best youtube channel ever
Thanks buddy.
i agree with you Hickok, I would say this is the moust beautiful handgun , maybe ever made. just the ticking sound is sweet . i realy want to get one. but its hard in Norway.
One of my fav handguns ever made
Man Nice pieces pretty to me. Excellent. I have also notice like you said that this video was shot a ways back you still have leaves on your tree this time of years. Nice guns and shooting
Hey Hickok I’m late to your wonderful video, ever thought of reviewing the colt cowboy series?😁 looks like a colt but doesn’t click like one.
Thanks
the colt single acion is the perfect cowboy gun, wanted one since I saw it watching the Lone Ranger
Cool stuff
Good stuff.
This is the greatest handgun ever made.
I could not find or afford a Colt SAA so I bought a Beretta Stampede single-action revolver manufactured by Beretta that is an exact clone of the Colt Single Action Army "Peacemaker". Very nice gun.
Sad that colt is not making this piece of America as much any more. These are perfection that all others are trying to be.
I believe the custom shop is. I hope, anyway. Last I heard, very expensive, like over $2,000.00.
Thank you
Cool vid... I'm developing an interest in the Old West guns so it's cool that you have several vids featuring them, thank you. Hey Hickok, have you ever done any vids on any of the double-action pistols that were available in the Old West? The only one I know of is the 1877 Colt Lightning and Thunder and I've been looking through Cimmaron Firearms site and they do offer a repro of the Lightning but it's only in single action. Of course my interest in the 1877 double-action is because of Doc Holliday ;)
Nice shooting. Very beautiful guns. You should do a segment on the remmington model 700 7mm CDL rifle
My brother has a cheap 22 magnum SA, it's awesome to shoot.
My dad had bought a brand new Colt 45 in 1956. He was only 21 years old at he time. I was born 1962. He was a cowboy and had the full leather waist belt holster that you can put the ammo all around the waist. - I can remember as a young kid watching him use that 45 when we would go camping in the Sierra Mountains. He shot a few rattlesnakes and such.
Many years later as we all got older I would ask my dad about that 45. I eventually moved in with my dad in 2008 as his health got bad. It was then in 2008 I could not find that Colt. As it turned out a "friend" of his talked him into selling it. I was very disappointed as I thought this was going to be a heirloom. My dad said it was too heavy and bought a 9mm. I never knew who the "friend" was. - My dad passed away in 2018
So, 1 May 2024, a stranger came to my house and said he had my dad's 1956 Colt 45. He had bought it from a family of the "friend" who originally bought it from my dad. The "friend" had passed away. So, the guy that came to my house realized that this Colt once belonged to my dad. It came with the original Colt box with small wire cleaning brush in a tube, 1956 bill of sales and registration.
The funny part was that the guy knew of my dad through cowboy clubs plus a book my dad wrote titled "Where The Reel West Was Won" - (My dad was an extra for scenes in Bonaza and wanted to be a stunt man. My grandfather pulled my dad out of the movie industry for moral reasons) - As it turned out, the funniest part about this, the guy was looking for me to see if I wanted the gun BUT did not realized we were only 4 houses away. He said he wished he knew he had been neighbors with my dad all along.
Long story short, I got this memorable heirloom Colt back in the family again
That's a great story; glad it ended well for you and you got the gun after all. Once these special guns get away, we rarely get them back. Being the first year of 2nd Generation Colt production, that Colt is special for THAT reason, too. Of course, the real value is that it was your dad's.
I'd love to have the exact Colt Python back that I sold in Franklin, Tn, in about 1974, as well as the Ruger Blackhawk I let get away at about the same time.
It's reload time is exilarating
Simply the best.
Please review the sig 556Xi! Love the channel
Love the revolvers... How about a review of the Webley Mk VI Revolver? If you could find one of course
Hickok45 why don't you bring the carbine Rossi puma .38 special . I really wanted to know more about this weapon .
SAA and Black Amp Down! ..Tremendous!
Sweeeet. I was born in '55, so it's a long way from new, but it looks new.
Do you have any of the SAA Colt frontier scouts or new frontier?? Love them!
The second gen serial numbers did not get all the way up to 80000 when second gen production ceased. When the third gen went into production Colt started the serial numbers at 80001SA. Note: "SA" suffix, like the second gens. When the numbers reached 100000 they started over with the "SA" as a prefix. Later when they reached 100000 again, they started over and split the "SA" to an "S" prefix and an "A" suffix.
So....... the early third gens did have an "SA" suffix, from 80000 to 100000. This is all explained in more detail in Don Wilkerson's book on the third gen Colts. The point is: An "SA" suffix does not automatically mean a Colt Single Action is a second gen model. Hope this helps.
There's nothing like the Colt SAA.To me,what makes 1956 especially great is my wife was born :)
Can you adopt me please?
M4a1 tigerfield said hello
tommy Help me I need those beautiful revolvers!
Damn you have me drooling over In NC
Beautiful pistols
Hey hickok, for your consideration, it's been a while since you've posted a slugfest... "Give the people what they want." Thanks for all the great videos, I watch you all day, everyday.
Yeah, a really long time, as in about a week or two ago. :-) You ever been to the home channel page and just clicked on videos? A lot of people never do that, which I always think is odd, because that's exactly what I do all the time. I like to go to a person's channel and see what they've done recently.
oh man - You know what, I even watched that video. I'm sorry.... thanks for keeping up with those... sorry to bother you, but while I have you're attention; one shotgun I've always loved was that SPAS-12 (It was in the first Jurassic Park). Even if you don't get to do a video with that, do you have any thoughts on it? No worries if you don't get back to me, I know you're busy, but thanks.
80 yds 2 out of 3? One handed, neat shooting Sir, Ty.
