OK, I sand corrected. As I said, by the position of the trigger it looks like DA to me. Looking at the hammer also, it could be in some type of safety position, that's why the trigger is moved so far ahead.
I'm not familiar with this particular gun, so I learned something new.
 
More old pix... Too late to take new pictures, not enough light...

That's the "Bisley Model" of the Colt Model P, or Single Action Army. The Model P was introduced in 1873--it's also sometimes called the Model of 1873. The Bisley Model was introduced around 20 years later. It was named after a competition shooting facility in England. The shape of the grip and the hammer are different from the regular Model P, and it was available with adjustable sights. Looking up "Bisley Model" will show the considerable differences in the guns. Copies of the Colt SAA and guns like the Ruger Vaquero are still available with Bisley frames.
 
Mentioned the Spyderco exclusive Endura 4 "Lone Wolf Amorer's Tool" (aka knife) in another thread.

I carry this knife w/me whenever I carry one of my Glocks, because it has a built in 3/32' punch which can be use to (almost) fully strip any Glock.

The only other tool you'd need to totally strip a Glock would be a small screw driver to remove the mag lock spring inside the frame and the back plate which retains the firing pin assembly in the slide. No way to remove the plastic firing pin channel liner w/o destroying it.

I highly recommend buying this knife (which you can get for the cost of a regular Endura 4) if you own/carry a Glock. Carrying a 3/32" punch in your range bag isn't difficult but a punch alone doesn't come w/a 4" waved blade. ;)

BTW, the Glock pictured is the Gen 2 G17 that was issued to me when I became an LEO, that I carried as a service weapon while so employed and have carried while off-duty and ever since my retirement under the LEOSA. I own 2 other G17s (Gen 3 & 4), a G26, G34, G21 and G30 for a total of 7 Glocks.
