Colt ANACONDA

[Vern Humphrey]

I have a Colt New Service in .45 Colt. I paid $350 for it. It had been re-blued and buffed so aggressively that the markings were blurred. It had a 7 1/2" barrel, with a front sight as thick as a razor blade and a rear sight to match. It was accurate (small groups) but it shot a foot high and 18" left.

After trying everything, I cut the barrel back to 5 1/2", mounted adjustable sights and put on Herrett Shooting Master grips.

I've been offered $1500 for this gun, but it ain't for sale!

...but it has FREE SHIPPING! Lol
Honestly though, for what Pythons are still bringing, I’m surprised this is still there.

Everybody is bragging about trigger pull on new Python and Anaconda.

What about accuracy, how new revolvers compare with old ones? Couldn't find anything.

Folks must be too afraid to shoot them at these prices they're just making gun safes heavier.

Yes, this might be interesting as I like 45 Colt.

I'll take a 44 Magnum though.

It's impressive how little self control people have. You could wait a couple weeks and pay close to MSRP.
However, in 60 years from now it'll probably be worth an extra $500 because it was a first year gun...

I had a four inch Anaconda in .45 colt back in the day. Sweetest revolver I ever owned. I can't remember exactly what I paid for it, but someone offered me way more than I paid, and like the fool I am, I sold it. I regret selling that gun to this day. And that was over thirty years ago.

I'm obviously quite naive about the price of Colt snake guns.

And you won't for a looooong time. I hope you're a young man.

Under MSRP now That's Funny

That's insane. A check of GunBroker shows several Anacondas, both vintage and new, much cheaper than that.
