Picked up a Colt Python *pics added 7/25*

This one of mine shoots well. Several others do too, but this is the only one that I can provide pics for.

Thanks for sharing coltfan that is a sweetheart! I finally get to pick mine up on Friday afternoon! It's got crappy rubber grips now, but I'm going to find a pretty chunk of walnut and have Culina make a beautiful set of target grips for it.

I just got it home, these are just a few quick pics I snapped. It had aftermarket rubber grips, but believe it or not I actually had these grips in a parts bin. It's still going to have some Culina walnut grips made for it. $1200 out the door- no box or papers though, I couldn't be happier!! ...range report Monday.

You got a smokin deal on that beauty. Sold mine 2yrs ago for well north of that price.

Wow is all a guy can say at that price! Congrats and shoot it well.

Thanks, It was on consignment. Best I can figure is the previous owner must have been in need of cash to sell it at that price. I wasn't looking for one and certainly didn't "need" it, but at that price I just couldn't pass it up.

.......Oh yeah, I never did give a range report. It shoots great with both .38 and .357, the action is really slick, I love this gun. Now it doesn't shoot any "better" than my model 28, but then I've had that for years and put 1000's of rounds through it. This Python is a keeper and I won't be selling it anytime soon.

Wow, Steve that is a nice look'in revolver! Be nice if it was a .44 special. Good find.
