locked up my new python

[bam11]

So on an impulse buy I bought a nickel 1981 colt python for 1000.00 hope that was a good price I dont own a revolver yet so thought it would look good in my collection. I hope I didnt over pay Its like new no chipping or defects I think he shot it, cleaned it and left it in the safe for the last 30 years


Im really excited to shoot it

[Mr310]

Nice gun. Nice price. Let us know how it shoots.

[boomer135]

you did great on the price.

[Ubermcoupe]

Where’d you find that? I’ll give you 1100 for it

[MossbergMan]

good buy! shoot it and enjoy it. I have a 6" blued Python....love it.

[den888]

Great price!

[dunndeal]

I have a 1982 Python just like it, has less than 200 rounds through it. If someone offered me $1000 for it I would laugh in their face.
You got a helluva deal.

[bombadillo]

That is an amazing deal for that gun. Probably worth 1500-2k depending on the gun. What a steal!

[NorCalXJ]

I'd put that in the safe and bring it out once in a while and stroke it

[Maddawg46]

You got a steal! If you get tired of it, I'll give you$1200. Unfired ones go for over $2000 up here in northern California.

Nice score 4" nickels aren't easy to find imho.

See if he has the original grips; they're about a $300 deduct from the value of your Python without them. Obviously the original box would add value also so check on that too.

[bombadillo]

Since you showed yours, I'll show you mine!

[HillBilly]

Not trying to thread jack, but here is a crazy, slightly relevant question fot you Python guys...I bought one that came with both the black rubber Colt grips (installed), and wooden colt grips. Is one grip set more "correct" than the other? Mine is a 4" blued.

[TF_CAM]

You absolutely did great on the price, they are worth anywhere from 1500-1800 depending on condition and buyer..

Heres one of my 4" 1978 Python that I bought a while back for 500$! And I just got back from Hodge Rd a couple hours ago!

[TF_CAM]

Since you showed yours, I'll show you mine!

wow, i want a 6" so bad... yours would fit perfect in my collection haha :P
