I saw a new Colt Anaconda at my LGS today. Nice looking finish but had one of the loosest cylinder lock-ups I've ever seen on a new revolver. It might still shoot good but it seems they could have done better than that for $1,500!

Haven’t handled an Anaconda but I bet it gets tight when the trigger is pulled.

I saw one about 6 weeks ago for $1200. Still kicking myself for not at least handling it. It might still be there, but I doubt it.

$1,200 seems like a really good price for one right now.

I would like one very much for $1200. There’s a used older one sitting in the gun case at the LGS for $2250.

Probably should of grabbed it. Just not what I'm in the market for right now.

Understood. I still kick myself for not buying a .30-06 with Leupold scope that person I knew was selling dirt cheap. It shot sub half inch groups with his handloads (big can of which were included). Just didn't have need for it that I could articulate at the time.

Stopped in a different LGS today. They have a King Cobra for $999. I asked if they ever get any Anaconda's in. He said that they got 10 in on Tuesday, and they were gone by noon Thursday. He said they were $1499 each.

Full boat retail is $1,499 I thought and that's what all the "gotta have it now" crowd will be paying, until they start to sit on the shelves for a little while and the price drops to where it should be..... around $1,250. It'll happen, but only after the COIVID-related shortage of guns repairs itself. I think with these guns, you have to understand and acknowledge that much of the premium price tag comes from the Colt name brand and not because it locks up tighter than anything else. This is just Colt being Colt and getting away with premium pricing because people are willing to pay it....plain and simple.

I just looked at a couple on GB. Finished auctions are around $1,900? Who are these "gotta have it now" guys paying $400 OVER and already crazy MSRP on a CURRENT PRODUCTION GUN? It makes zero sense? And then people complain about PRICE GOUGERS (which is not actually price gouging)! If there are idiots willing to go on GB and spend $400 over a $1,500 gun, well then who can blame anyone for taking advantage of that? These guns will never come down to MSRP or lower until these fools stop buying them!
