Colt Python 'New Production' Snubs???

[smithra_66]

I think a snub Python will happen sooner than later. Colt already makes the new Cobra in non-Canuck lengths, no reason to ignore big sales here.

They are already selling all of the 6" and 4 1/4" Pythons they can crank out, at full MSRP. Same with the new Anacondas.

People will waa-waa-waa that the new guns aren't "real", but they are disappearing as soon as they hit the shelves while new Smiths are gathering dust.

Colt still does nicely blued SAAs. They can do blue Pythons if they want.

With a big infusion of dough from CZ, I think we'll see some interesting Colts.

Good points. I hope you are right and I am wrong!

On a related topic, I just got an email from Grab-A-Gun for 4" Stainless Pythons for $2,299. Are people really paying that? That's just plain crazy. Sorry, had to say it.

Yes. Seems like all day long too.

Pretty crazy.

People have the resources to pay whatever they want to.


There was one locally for $1679, list is $1499. I passed. I have never, nor will ever, pay more than MSRP for anything. Others will, good for them.

Some people are paying $20,000+ over MSRP for new corvettes. Whatever floats your boat.

Heard of someone in the Charlotte, NC area spending $2,700 for a 2020 6" python that was on consignment in a LGS.....
Crazy stuff
