you know what I seen at the Gun Shop that’s also a McLaren show room. A Korth Mongoose! It comes with a GIANT case. But $5,200 is NUTZZZ

Good onya Mark. I knew you'd be getting one eventually. I'm gonna hold out for the blued Anaconda myself, hopefully they'll make one.

I took my wife's car down to the dealership for the free oil change and came home with a new Corvette.
Nice score! Did the shop have any of the 4.25" models in blue?

The QR code don't bother me on the KCT, if it did I'd have laser welded and benched it back by now.

No, just this on, it just hit the floor. I knew it wouldn’t last past 1 day. Paid not a dime over retail or under!
A corvette is a bit more of a commitment then a Python

That ain't to far off on how my recently acquired Ruger Mark II came about. Was making mostacolli and meatballs last week and forgot to grab the onions. Of course I decided to go to the small market in town instead driving back to the big market in the city, and my LGS just happens to be at the other end of the parking lot..........Marky_Mark: I went to buy a pound of hamburger and came back with two new revolvers!

Beautiful gun! I like my stainless Python but it doesn’t hold a candle to that beauty!

the rear sight was tight (yes, tried the original loose sight) Timing was ok, not as good as a Colt OM, Lock had a little wiggle with trigger depress, gap looks pretty big (not like a OM).
recoil shield - cylinder gap! you can park a Tesla Cyber Truck though it.
The Blue look like high Gloss paint. NOTHING like the Royal Blue of Old Colt. It mediocre at best
DA Trigger pull was really GOOD! SA was excellent.
I’ll give my very bias review soon. We have a 2 week wait here, and I gotta take care of some out of town business soon.
But… want to see a Real COLT!

They're not blued. From everything I've read they are coated. I can't bring myself to buy one.

Hey Mark- Is the finish actual blue, or some finish applied to stainless?
It still looks great in the pics.
