The standard factory finish for all generations of the Colt Single Action Army (SAA) is Color case Hardening. NOW, the finish that could be special ordered is a different story. Some SSA's returned to the factory for repair were blued all over. But the general rule is unless it was nickel plated the finish should be Color Case Hardening.
