Appropriate pricing for Colt Python? | National Gun Forum

He came down to $1,300.00. This was at a small local gun show. I may catch him this weekend at a large local show and buy it.

Mar 22, 2011 · The .44 mag that possesses much greater power than the .357 mag, and can be considered overkill. The 180 gr. JHP cranks out about 1800 fps and will go completely through the body.

Mint 1988 NYCPD 3" Ruger Speed Six 38 spl (GS-83)
Feb 11, 2020 · Thanks. I also like my Rugers. My first was a blued 4.2" GP100 357, then a SS 5" GP100 357, '67 three screw Single Six 22 LR, SP101 2.25" DAO 357 and the Speed Six. All great shooters with very smooth triggers. IMO Ruger makes fine revolvers and if you get a lemon, their customer service is the best in the industry.
