Yeh, I typed without thinking, I see you in the hand loading section. Also, I am looking forward to joining the Anaconda club myself, I hope yours has been treating you well.
Of my 4 revolvers, the Anaconda is the best. The smoothest and the most well refined. It’s also the most expensive.Yeh, I typed without thinking, I see you in the hand loading section. I am looking forward to joining the Anaconda club myself.
I still love my Smith revolvers, but once I found the right semi-automatics for me, I realized that the problem hadn't been the platform, but rather that I hadn't yet found the right guns.
With prices skyrocketing and clean vintage examples getting harder and harder to find, I dont anticipate buying many (or any) more revolvers. But I count myself very lucky to have found the ones I do have.Judging by the responses in this thread, sounds like 2023 might be "The Year of the Revolver" for many if us!

Don’t know if it’s all of them or not, but my King Cobra also has the best trigger of any revolver I own or have ever owned, and that’s a sample size of about 100. Second place is…a new Cobra I recently picked up. Sadly, my Python’s trigger is good but nowhere near those two guns, and none of my Rugers or Smiths are anywhere close, save one pre-Model 10 M&P from 1947 that I believe had some work done on it somewhere along the line.I was a life-long semi-auto guy, but strangely, in the past ten years, I've been acquiring revolvers over autoloaders at about a 5 to 1 rate. And my new favorite all-purpose revolver - concealable, lightweight, so accurate, and tames full-house .357s while .38s are pussycats through it, best trigger out of the box -- DA and SA -- of any production revolver I've owned in the past 40 years.
