The only Colt I own is a blue Series 80, maybe 10 years old. Probably never part with it, but it’s value is nowhere near the Python.
I had a Python once, for a short while. I got it for someone else, who could legally own it. They were hard to come by, even then. It just wasn’t convenient for him to get it. It was several decades ago, six inch blued... Beautiful revolver.
Eventually, he came up with the money. I guess I would be labelled a “straw purchaser” these days...
I bet that six inch Smith shoots very well.
I’m in the market for a shiny 4 in magnum,
the new Ruger Match Champion is My choice,,,
oh well.
