My new Series 70 Gold Cup After looking for the best 1911 to ad to my collection, fate stepped in. I can across an ad on gunsamerica for a Colt Gold Cup series 70, and its at a gun shop near where I live! I called from work to make sure it was still available, then asked the owner to hold it...

Is a mint series 70 better then a mint series 80? or are either better then a current Colt custom shop model? If so, why, what features on the different series are best. I have read about the different series but I'd like some real world answers from people who have them.

I am trying to decide between the Kimber Super Match II, Grand Raptor II, or the Colt Special Combat Government 45ACP to add to my collection, and shoot. I'd like some opinions and thoughts on which of these three guns would be best in terms of quality for shooting. I'd like to hear all sides...

A month and a half ago I sent a couple of nickel revolvers back to Colt for tuning and refinishing. The Trooper mark V was just color buffed and came back looking great, all at no charge (even shipping to me). The Python had a blemish near the grips and a little mark near the trigger that did...

Hi, I recently called Colt to ask about what they recommended to clean my bright nickel Trooper Mark V and 6" nickel Python. Both guns are in nice shape, but there are a couple of dull spots on each (the Python is 30 years old and the Trooper 20 something). The rep at Colt suggested I send them...

Hi all, I have a question for the more experienced on here. After reading some information on ammo and barrel wear, I am worried that my exclusive use of FMJ ammo is bad for my guns. I shoot only .38 special FMJ through my Pythons and Trooper Mark V, and recently read that lead ammo is...

Well, I was browsing the local gun shop yesterday when I came across a 1976 6" nickel python in "minty" condition as my friendly dealer put it. It had been fired, but looks like new and the action feels super. This shop gives you a test target, fired at 25', and its one tight cluster. He let me...

Hi All, I have been looking at various gun storage techniques for the 8 handguns I currently own. Foam hardcases were no good for long term storage, and the soft zipper cases are no quite the answer either. I looked at many gun safes but I don't have an ideal place in my house to keep...

Hi all, Happy holiday's to everyone! I was thinking of adding a nickel python to my collection, and I was thinking of a nickel snake this time. I own two blued pythons, with another in the mail. Still have some Christmas money left to spend so any help is appreciated.

Hi, Is a mint 1987 to 1990 6" colt python worth around $700?? Are they really that much less quality then a 1970 or earlier model, or is it a matter of judging each gun on its own merits?? Thanks for any comments.....

Can I have some opinions on a NIB SS King Cobra mint, for about $900, is that way too high???
