Python

I wanted a Colt Python stainless when I first became aware of them, mid-80s in Soldier of Fortune magazine. 

Shoulda bought one back then.

I was never wiling to pay for the pony, S&W has always been good enough for me.

I owned one a few years ago. Great gun but Colt revolvers just aren't for me. I can't believe they have nearly doubled in valued since then. I should have held on to it!

Being a contrarians, I carried a nickeled Colt Python for several years on the Job before going Semi Auto. It still sits in my safe. I guess there is someone out there who could put enough zeros in a check to buy it but the sentimental value is priceless. And in 1975 it was a whopping $25 more than a model 66.
