I Shot It On Sunday!

I got a chance to shoot the Anaconda a little bit last Sunday. I shot @ the 25 yard action target. It's one of those "Xmas trees" w/ the paddles that swing from one side to the other.

One word describes it, FUN! The heavy barrel and frame make it a kitten to shoot! :) I'll get to some paper punching soon.

Colt discontinues more guns. :(

Colt executive (empty suit) #1: "Our double action revolvers are expensive to produce. What should we do?"

Colt executive (empty suit) #2: "I know, let's discontinue all double action revolvers. That will show those pesky customers!"

Colt executive (filled suit) #3: "S&W and Ruger have incrementally raised prices until the revolver line is profitable. They improved their product line and given the Customers what they want. We can do that too. Market research shows the majority of customers are willing to pay a premium as long as they receive good product and we stand behind it. Our name is worth alot as long as we build a good gun."

Colt executive (empty suit #1): "Discontinue all double action revolvers now."

Colt executive (empty Suit) #2: "Right away chief!"

Beautiful gun. I searched hi and low for one for many years. Could never find one that didn't have oversize throats went anywhere from .456 to almost .460 in a couple examples. Wish I had bought the one that measured .456 but at the time I didn't want to start casting bullets. Just out of curiosity what do the throats measure on your example?
