45 ACP in Uberti SAA

Both are generational variants of the same gun, designed by the same company, manufactured by the same company, and originally built for the Army.

Not entirely correct.
1st gen Colt designed and built by Colt's patent firearms manufacturing co. for the army.
3rd gen Colt is designed and built by Colt's manufacturing LLC and no army in the world uses a 3rd gen Colt.
A Uberti SAA uses the original design patents like a 1st gen colt.

You're splitting hairs, pointless.
I said generational variants of a gun originally built for the Army, made by the same company.
You want to break it down word by word & dissect irrelevant technicalities on company generations, too, you can waste your own time in doing it.
So Colt today isn't Colt in 1873.
Remington today isn't the original Remington.
S&W isn't the original S&W.
Even Ruger isn't the original Ruger.

This has wandered far enough.

Hey pot have you met the kettle.lol
I tell you what you start assuming that when people say UBERTI SAA that they know it isn't a Colt and I'll assume you didn't forget.

If it's a '57 Thunderbird, don't call it a Corvette just because both were two-door American sports cars of the same general size.

The 57 Thunderbird was a personal luxury car. I find the use of "sports car" in reference to T Birds more offensive than SAA. (sorry, couldn't resist)
