..anyone else notice a price crash with the older Pythons since the announcement of the new gun...
Was just doing some checking on GB and saw a mint 6" that just sold a few days ago for $2100... An UNFIRED 8" $2300.... These would have been in the $3K range a few months ago...
Was in a shop in Ct. la couple of weeks ago and saw a very clean 6" for only $2100.... That's what many of us predicted.

I have to finish reading those manuals RJM sent me, are 1955 pre-25 45 ACP and a pre-27 357 mag N frames pre lock revolvers? they both have five screws if that helps. I think they started putting the locks on in the 1990s. Ten Fo, Thanks, we've got that whupped by a long shot, that said, and I realize this is a Colt thread, those old S&W's of mine are indeed tight and smooth, not saying much on my part, but they both shot every load I've put in them better than I have the talent to realize. I've got more S&W revolvers than Colts. I only have two of each, S&W 357 and 45 ACP, Colt 357 and 45 Colt, I love em all!

I just looked on GB and Guns International; prices look the same to me. I guess I'm not looking in the right places.

Prices haven't dropped on original Python's as far as I can tell and I don't expect them to. If you want "a real Python" they are the only option and they work properly

Someone is saying that an inside source (a distributor) has told them that Colt recalled over a hundred of the Pythons they delivered to the distributor. That's just one distributor, so the assumption is that they are recalling all Pythons from all distributors.

Well that was quick! When I posted it I had just checked the store to make sure and it was available. I wonder how many people got that email?

[b][/b] Sounds like there might be an issue, but I’m buying one anyway even if I have to send it back a time or two That's mighty big talk from a guy named Boatanchor. Just kidding.  You are making fun of my name when yours is Chucky....  Actually, it's ChuckKY. But no harm , no foul.
