USFA Rodeo

Post by jkbrea »

I got a line on one in that's like new in .45 for $600. I don't know the barrel length yet but waiting on a call back. I don't know much about them other than I almost got one years back and heard they were really well built. Reading up on USFA, it looks like they went out of the SAA revolver business and just produce a goofy looking .22. I know they had a lifetime warranty but it makes sense if they don't make 'em, they can't fix 'em. Still a good deal or???

Judging by the prices on USFA SAAa I saw at the Tulsa show last weekend, that's a heckuva deal. As in 30-40% of the prices I saw... I found lots of Colts for much less.

I think you can't go wrong with any USFA. Never seen complains of USFA revolver owners. My two USFA revolvers are great in any respect. Fit and finish, timing, trigger and accuracy. As Old Savage said: grab it!

I would grab it at that price, even if I had to charge it.

That's a bargain... It's been 24hrs since you posed the question and were answered... SO! Where are the pics of your new gun? :twisted: :P :lol:

That is now a 900-1100 dollar gun! USFA guns are getting what used to be Colt prices.
Sincerely,
