The Colt 1873 Single Action Army pistol is known in American history by nicknames such as Peacemaker, M1873, Model P, Frontier, or simply as the Colt .45. Its most prominent users in the Wild West included legendary figures like Wyatt Earp, Bat Masterson, Pat Garrett, Theodore Roosevelt, and Buffalo Bill Cody.
What different surface finishes and grip materials were historically available for the Colt 1873 SAA, either from the factory or as a special order?

Historically, the Colt 1873 SAA was available from the factory with a color case-hardened frame and blued metal parts, or with full nickel plating. Special orders included finishes in silver, gold, or combinations of bluing and nickel (e.g., a nickel-plated grip frame on an otherwise blued gun). Initially, the factory grip material was a single piece of walnut, and from around 1881, gutta-percha (hard rubber) was used. Exclusive options or special orders included materials such as ivory, mother-of-pearl, staghorn, buffalo horn, and various precious woods like rosewood.

The Colt 1873 SAA distinguished itself from its predecessors primarily through its closed frame, which enclosed the cylinder and gave the revolver significantly greater stability and robustness. Furthermore, it was designed as a cartridge revolver, which, compared to the previously common percussion revolvers, allowed for more reliable function and easier handling under extreme conditions.
