Hoo wee! Colt guys are real zealots.

I missed a Colt Python, 6" blue with box in .41 Magnum and so marked with the correct Colt Script on the barrel ".41 Magnum". It was a 6-shot. Of course several guys were all buzzing about it and I had it in my hand and the money ($600 cash) to snatch it up. Everyone was talking about it being all faked and what. Sure, it was not factory, but I figured worth the money anyway. I think I read some custom smith made a few.

Either way it was super unique and well executed. I had some other pending project in need of funding so I finally passed. Even if I'd bought it I'd likely have traded it off by now. I usually take the money and run when I'm ahead and seldom look back. I've always made money, but could have made much more.

Always wanted a Colt Diamondback (baby Python). I know they made them in .22 LR but perhaps .22 WMR? Made lots of Official Police in .22 and some Trooper MKIII in .22 WMR. Just don't know about the WMR in a Diamondback. I've wanted one ever since the Steve McQueen movie where he was sporting a 2-1/2" .38, was it Bullitt?
