Hi Terry, beautiful guns you have there. I am always a fan of the colt python. I saw it in one of the Dirty Harry movies Magnum Force as a child. It was used by those four rogue cops in the movie. I have a couple of questions for you. When the colt pythons were reintroduced in 2020, wasn’t there a recall about a side plate screw coming loose causing timing issues? Second, has Colt started fixing the rear sight issue. I would love to get a python but only if they got rid of the bugs. You’re right $1500 is a steal for a classic handgun like that. Thanks.
I have a video comparing the old vs. New one. The side plate only happened to some of the very first few. It was such a minor thing that got blown out of proportion. That issue has been resolved. The sight thing has never been fixed. You ha e to just order the wilson combat site. It fixes everything. Check out the side by side comparison video. I would highly recommend getting one of the new ones
Glad to see this video. I don't have a 44magnum revolver so I been studying most of them. Your video has convince me to buy the new Anaconda. Lots of good comments about it here and many other sites. Thank you.
I got a question. I just picked up my 8" Anaconda last week and I already had the 6" Python and after comparing both next to each other it seems like my Python has a more mirror polish to it and the Anaconda is a more matte polish. Has anyone noticed this about there Anaconda?
What barrel lengths are these pistols? Where can these grips be purchased? Thanks! What barrel length do you recommend on the Python, 4.25” or 6”. I have 2.5, 4, & 6” S&Ws
@The Negociater they are the Altamont Grips Python Elite Grips. The saying that I put on them.are from my favorite movie Pulp Fiction. That was the waller Samuel L. Jackson had.
@@TerryBenton I have both. I kept trying to see an external difference between both. It looks like the Python’s hammer is pointed more upward than the Anaconda.
@@TerryBenton It's a general difference. The guns are fine. It's just a detail for people who try to guess if It's a Python or an Anaconda they saw in a game or a movie
@@SpaceBethC131 right. I usually notice everything. I did not notice that. The old anaconda and python were light years apart when it came to the hammers. I actually compare them in another video
Can that bar code be polished out of the frame without leaving a noticeable difference in the finish? My 460 and 500 Smiths have those hideous looking things.At least Colt never put a Hilary hole in the frame for the guns to be disabled with a key like S&W did. I bought a 2 1/2" Python a couple of weeks ago and its ten day waiting period will be over on Mon. or Tues.of next week,M.L. King day doesn't count in the 10 day countdown and neither do week ends! Thanks Washington Democrats!!!
