12/31/2023 0 Comments Colt anaconda 4 inch![]() ![]() I am the same way with my collection of firearms - they get used like they are supposed to. I rode for many years - year 'round - regardless of weather (except ice/snow - but have been known to get caught in that, too). They were leaving the 'Beamer parked outside of town so they could ride their Harley into town. There was a late 20 something blonde putting on 'leathers - while a young guy backed a Harley out of the trailer. There was a guy with a white BMW convertible with a box trailer hooked to it. Short story: Took the wife and kids up North on vacation years ago. Rich Yuppies did the same thing to Harley-Davidson that they are doing with the Colt 'Snake Guns' - making a good product too expensive for REAL users to own. People are paying down-right insane prices for these today, so you could take advantage of the Yuppie Craze and make a huge profit off of it. If you don't like the full-power loads - just shoot. It's already been used some - so shooting it won't harm the value. Shoot the suckers!!Įither shoot it or trade/sell it. Relegating them to investments or art is a waste. I shoot mine and I'd shoot a Python if I had one. They are probably significantly less valuable then a Colt Python. I have no idea how many were made but I suspect they might have been one of the less popular models at the time mostly because of the elevated prices. ![]() My notes of the time indicated their availability was limited and spotty immediately there after. Mine is a 6 inch barrel Stainless Steel version bought in 1993 during one of Colt's bankruptcy periods. It is an excellent gun with excellent fit and finish and is accurate. My point is it is not extremely valuable and should be used. It is Colt, though, and some collectors place extra value on any gun Colt produced. I suspect collectors would shun it as it is not a true snake gun. Has a colt box but no papers or tags denoting it is the original box. 4 inch ventilated rib barrel and original colt pacmyar grips. It uses the trigger action design from a later lesser gun using coil springs. Colt Anaconda (4 in, box) Description: Its always exciting to get in an anaconda, but a 4 inch anaconda Wow This stainless 44 magnum features target sights, hammer, and trigger. The Anaconda is not in the same gun family. I am not a Colt expert but as I understand it, and correct me if I am wrong, the earlier snake guns were based on the Python with flat springs and a different trigger mechanism that gave the Python its reputation for a wonderful double action pull. The Colt "Snake Guns" are valuable and collectable.
