The front of the cylinder is nicely chamfered in the old black-powder style as is the front of the ejector-rod housing. The base pin is of the proper configuration, while the ejector-rod head is of the half-moon variety. The sights are traditional single action following the hog-wallow trough through the top of the mainframe. The hammer spur follows the proper curve, the front sights are not only shaped correctly, they are also made easier to see by the fact that they are not tapered to the top and are also matched up with a rear notch cut square. Most of the form of these sixguns is quite right. Once the hammer is cocked, you also see the lack of a firing pin on the hammer. The only thing which gives them away initially is the fact that due to the use of a transfer-bar safety, the trigger rides farther forward in the triggerguard than found on original single actions from the 19th century. In fact, at first glance these Rough Rider. 45 Colt single-action sixguns in this country that don’t even come close to looking like those Spaghetti Western sixguns from the 1960s.
