Good one for the morning. This made me spray coffee out of my nose.

[jdfthetech]

[MrBlazito]

Was the auction pulled? I can't find it.

[MosinVirus]

The auction is there. Search for Python Broken.

I wish I had an FFL. woukd buy that in a heartbeat.

Starting bid is $400.

[MrBlazito]

I think my gunbroker is broken. Not seeing the results with the terms Python broken

My money says a heavy charge of Bullseye (or 231) got that one. This reply may belong in the reload section of the forum, but this may be another illustration of why I am so adamant that beginners should not use progressive loading machines until they fully grasp and have some experience in actually learning about the process. To learn that process, some time using single stage equipment and how to deal with problems is what it takes. The fact that a valuable firearm was destroyed only makes it more so.

So this is the tale of a beginner reloading on a progressive press?

JB Weld?

Way to go. Save 8.5 cents a round and ruin a Colt.

Old Colts didn't have top straps so, it looks like getting a new cylinder would be all you needed for a retro build.

That worked. Thank you Sir.

[Deedle]

That's just sad.

[P5Ret]

That's not sad, it's freaking CRIMINAL.

[MosinVirus]

That worked. Thank you Sir.

By the way, it is advertised as complete, but the rear sight assembly is gone.

Also the barrel seems to be bulged.

I don't know about this exact case, but I have seen it happen more than once before.
