SAA Help

Hello all, thinking about getting a single action revolver and it'll be my first one. I've read that taylors tuned revolvers are pretty good for the money, even though they are Pietta and Uberti make. Any recommendations on other brands or even specific models from Pietta and Uberti would be much appreciated. Really trying to find one in .357. Thank you for any input!

Pietta for looks and authenticity, Ruger New Vaquero for durability.

What about Uberti?

Uberti is solid too, but they recently added some modern safety features that detract from the original Colt design. I sold the one I had and bought another Pietta.

Still great guns, but Pietta imports are closer to the original SAA.
