Just to keep this thread going, did the original SAA come in .45 LONG Colt?

And when was the name Frontier Six-Shooter rolled onto the barrel?

Also, if it's a flattop, is it still a SAA?

And was it true that in Colt ads back in the 1880s, shooters were instructed to load six and then pull the gun's hammer to its SAFETY notch?
