I walked into my LGS yesterday AM and he was dealing for a Colt Python Hunter that a customer had brought in. I hurriedly slipped him a note and asked that he call me ASAP.

Well, he did, and I went back this morning and bought the darn thing but now I would like to have an original Halliburton Aluminum Case that these Pythons came in, in 1981, the only year of production.

I know it's a long shot, no pun intended, but if anyone knows where I might acquire one, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks. donsm70

Thanks to you, too, huntsonora.

I think Colt must have contracted with Halliburton to provide a specific case for their Python Hunter in 1981. It had foam inserts and cutouts for the revolver w/the Leupold scope and several other accessories.

I know it's a long shot, but I would like to find an "original".

Thanks again. Don

Everyone of the original cases I have seen for them had the foam replaced because the original had deteriorated. Very cool gun though.

Thanks JJ.

Back up.

This is the case with the Haliburton cases like Jesse said. Many a good Python pitted beyond recognition due to the foam deteriorating and sticking to the gun, causing a horrible mess. Jesse, you don't have an extra one amongst all your Python stuff? Lol.

I had one with the case and everything and sold it. I regret it now.

I'm sure you do.
