I compared my Colt to my S&W 60-15. They were very comparable.

Of course, I didn't compare it with my 686. It's a larger revolver with a higher price tag. And I certainly didn't compare it to my $1,250 PC 327 TRR8. Nor would I compare my S&W 642 to a Colt Python.

I'm curious as to which S&W models you actually compared to the Colt.
