colt python?

[shrek]

They aren't made anymore, a buddy just sold a mint 6'' for $1500.00. Worth the $$ though a 4'' is more to my liking....

  shrek,  just curious why do you like a 4 better than a 6?    mike w

Portability, just sweet on 4'' ers vs 6''ers.. Personal preference...

  just figgered out that pythons are not made anymore so what is a ballpark range to look for to buy a "used"one?    are all pythons in 357?     what do they weigh?     mike w

Of all the guns I've gotten rid of the Colt Python is the one I regret the most.

me too

my understanding is that the python was the only production revolver where ALL of them went through the custom shop on the way out.. thus the triggers, etc.. very smooth, but pricy if you can find one..

I bought a new 4in blued Python about 18yrs ago and never got around to shooting it.  Then they started going crazy on price and I just kept it in its unfired fired condition.  To this day it's still new, unfired, in the blue box and that box is inside that thin colt cardboard box.  Every so often I check it all out and put it back in the boxes and tuck it away in my safe.
