I am in my 28th year of life and the government at both state and federal has taken away my employment, I was a tool and die maker before due to COVID-19. I have been a drift for three months wondering the USA and searching for places to relocate where life maybe better. In my driftings I find gun shops and pawn shops with items of intrest and in doing so I acquire stuff and in my latest find it is a new production COLT PYTHON 357 Mag 4 inch barrel.
I have been lead to believe Colt is the name brand of quality and accuracy and why should it not be when the base price is $2500 a item. That quality and accuracy ends at the name on the box. The reality of this new "COLT" if you can really call it that is a redisened turd whose fit and finish is right up there with Rock Island Armory revolvers. The accuracy is dismal as well. If I wanted accuracy I would have chossen a proven winner Dan Wesson model 15 in any barrel length obtainable. This colt will not shoot better than 6 inch groups a 25 yards. I mean come on 6'' groups why not buy a shotgun and do better. Colt at this moment is just a term for look what I can afford to buy and nothing else, I simply can't understand why people would buy this crap. Its always interesting to notice Colt's buying dempgraphic are the elderly and such who will argue you to death that that Colt is an investment and you'll see in ten years when you sell which is worth more. I will let this colt go back to the fold and hope to regain a $1000 and in ten years when Grandpa is dead and I have my $1000 back I guess I will feel a right smart silly. Bottom line stay away from Colt
