snubnose python value

[marksolar]

Have a chance to purchase a snubnose Python.

This revolver does not have the original grips and has very slight blueing wear on the barrel tip, but otherwise the finish is very nice. No box , etc.

Any thoughts on the value ( without seeing pics ) ?

Snub Snakes are very hard to find and pricey. I would think about $2500 is what it's going to cost you, just a guess but I don't think far off.

Yep, I agree, snubbies are very hard to find and when you do they bring a nice price premium

feeding frenzy on pythons right now

unless you want to hold and resell, trying to ride the wave and make money someday, I wouldn't bother.....as a shooter, its not worth 2500...only as a speculative investment

Not that kind of money ..... more like $1300.

Send me his info, it's too much money.

That's a steal, go buy it right now!!!

for a shooter thats a good price, if you really want to shoot it

the colts are touchy though, go out of time easily and not as robust as the Smith

Not trying to start a flame

But I've been shooting Colts for 25 years and have never had one go out of time or fail. Lots of hot handloads and thousands of rounds downrange.

I would put the Trooper MK III and Anacondas up against any gun for robustness. Pythons are not far behind...

But JMHO...

PS I love Smiths too

Almost had this one home from Iraq. The guy behind was a cop, and killed. That's his gun.

Buy it fast as you can. If you are in the Bay Area I'll give you $1800. soon as you have it. Ignore all the FUD about them being weak in any way, greatest wheel gun ever made.
