I have friend that has a Colt Python .357 revolver that he bought used in 2001 for $1100. He has said that he has only put about a dozen rounds through it. He is really not a gun guy but keeps it loaded on his bedside table, in case of what may happen here in the boontoolies. This is his pic, but it was on a Word.docx file and I had to scan it to convert it to a .jpg. Sorry if it is not of the best quality.
If you are wondering, it is not my pistol. The only revolver I own is a Ruger SP101 in .38 Special. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool 1911 guy but I won't bother you all with that. I am just trying to find out some things for my friend.
I hope the picture is good enough to make a decision.
I am curious about the wood. Is it factory? I have no knowledge about Pythons but I hope to learn. It can't hurt.
What are such pistols selling for these days? My friend has heard that it might fetch around $5K but I am leery about that price.
I just want a ballpark price for a used gun to let him know what he might have.
Thanks in advance for any good responses.
