Nice stuff gents. My one and only Colt revolver bought cheap as it has, obviously, been refinished. It resides in Idaho and is a joy to shoot. IIRC it has the same action as the Python. Uh, that's one hell of a target revolver...Very accurate!

Haven't had one in a while, and I fell in love with this 4" equipped with a full on Pimp-Kit (Nickle & Ivory). I'm a sucker for bright nickle. I am,like a racoon I like shiny things Hank

Is it OK if I post this picture again? (and I do have the original stocks) I think it's time to take it out for a spin again. Stainless or nickel? "Electroless Nickel", not shiny, kind of frosted looking.

Colt DA pistols are great, that's the reason Ed McGivern and Jerry Miculek used them to set speed shooting records.
Imagine a corporate oligarchy so effective, so advanced and fine tuned that its citizens still call it a democracy.
