Just what I wanted to hearIt’s not mine, but a friend of mine has one that gets used a lot. He carries it hunting, camping, fishing... but that’s what it was bought for. He inherited it and kept using it the way his grandpa used it because that what grandpa bought it for. It’s been to the gunsmith a couple times, but it still serves its original role frequently.
During the time my GP100 was at the Firearms Examiner, I toted a spare revolver, on duty, which fit the same Safariland 070 duty holster, a Colt Stainless Python. If I recall correctly, I carried that Python concealed, during personal time, too. Believe it, or not, I did not regard that Python as being all that special, as I shot the GP100 better. Somewhere along the way, before it became collectible, I traded that Python, and today, have several GP100 revolvers, in addition to that first one.
I can believe it. Pythons were pretty crudely made by the time the stainless version was introduced.
I have one made in 76, i cant seem to sell it. I want something i can use and not sit in the safe.
New Python, or old Python ?Had mine out on Tuesday. Need to find some non- cheese-grater grips though.
