    NAA mini revolver

    I emailed NAA and they replied within an hour. I got it around Christmas time almost 20 years ago, born on 6/8/1993. It is a great little gun. Thanks, JD

    Another picture of my $500 Python. Are the ivory grips worth $500? I can't find much info or pics to compare with mine. I ordered some Hogue rubber grips for it.

    Found a Python today

    Okay, thank you. I paid $500. No box, the action is nice and tight and shoots like a dream. Are the grips real ivory? What grips originally came stock on the nickel models? I purchased from the original owner but didn't ask if the grips were factory. Thanks again.

    It's a 1966 6" .357 Colt Python. What's the value on these? It has a few blemishes and scratches.

    I buy a Combo license Gun/Bow and at least one antlerless tag. I kill at least two doe's personally a year on my properties in Michigan for the meat. I only kill the "Big Boys" anymore (I know:barf:.) so if I haven't filled the tags by the end of front-stuffer season I'll kill another...

    Help me spend my money.... on a j frame

    442 I'm a Blue/Black revolver guy. You are correct, The only difference between the two is the finish and the carbon stainless construction. It seems that the 642's are usually lower priced and more common in the shops.

    OWEN, Thanks for correcting my bad information. I always thought the first model FNP's were imported. I have a notorious bad memory, so I guess I must have been thinking of the Forty Nine being imported.. Thanks, JD_LION
