I couldn't agree more on your statement about the 4.25" Anaconda being the best looking new production revolver offered to date. I would swear those were nickel finish instead of stainless. Colt really knocked it out of the park on their finish work on these two you have. I've always shyed away from Colt due to the cost. However the insane amount of money older Smith 29-2s are fetching may possibly mean it's ok to give the new Anaconda a look. Thanks for the video!
This presentation inspired me take out and compare my 2021 Colt Anaconda, 1991 Colt Anaconda, and my S&W 50th Anniversary Model 29 all chambered in .44 Magnum I have a Python manufactured in the 1980’s which I purchased in the late 1990’s. I have been waiting for Colt to produce a New Python in blue to match my 1980’s Python and not they have. I will wait for the price to drop a little and I put together the $$s to purchased one. The current price is quite high. On the 2021 Anaconda I have installed nice wood grips with finger groves and inlay miniature full size gold rampant horse and round gold rampant horse madalion and these grips look AWESOME I might have to get a 4.25” Anaconda. My buddy prefers the 4.25. When started a cop he carried a 4.25” Python and prefers that size revolver. Although our ECD’s are 1911’s. He carries a full size government 5” and I carry a commander 4.25” On both on by Anacondas I have scopes. On the 1991 i have a Propoint red dot circa 1991 with Pachmyer rubber grips with finger Grover Circa 1991 and on the 2021 Anaconda 3-9X42 scope which I shoot at 100 yards. My grips on both Anaconda are the same shape as yours and I agree, they are the best feeling grips I have ever felt on a revolver Anyway another inspiring presentation FYI - all these revolver are in 6” Ricky from IBM
If you like them there is nothing wrong with them. I ha e a comparison video that shows why I think the way I do If you are Interested. I show them side by side
I was thinking about a set of Altamont grips, but after seeing yours I chose not to because of the crappy fit and finish behind the trigger guard. At least they could made them fit a little tighter around the guard.
Colt had the right idea with the original Anaconda, but they could never really get it right. The old Anaconda was hybrid of a scaled up King Cobra / Trooper with a Python style looking barrel. The quality was subpar, below average and not even close to what it should have been, even for the manufacturing technology of nearly 35 years ago. The 2021 Anaconda is a 1,000 times better gun in fit, finish, strength and trigger. Colt finally got the Anaconda right and there is no comparison between the old and the new. I have owned a 6 inch 2021 Anaconda since March 2021 and have no need for the 4,25" model, but everytime I see a 4.25" Anaconda I want one more and more. Someday temptation will win and I will trade off one of my other guns for this diamond......
To be honest they are about the same. It is such a heavy gun that it absorbs alot. It is still. 44 mag answer will have recoil but not as much as a smaller smith
The 4.25” Anaconda is next on my list. Great job Colt!
It is probably the coolest new Colt revolver made to date. Thanks.for watching
Damn Terry. You've been buying some new production Colts lately. I guess you approve.
Yeah I think their new revolvers are pretty cool. They did a good job on them

I bet you have one of the most amazing collections. I would like to see somebody your stuff one day
@@TerryBenton I was thinking the same thing about you too lol
Wish they made a 5”
They just came put with a 5 inch python so maybe they will soon
That's a pretty bold statement about the earlier Anacondas. My 1994 model is the nicest .44 Magnum I own.
If you like them there is nothing wrong with them. I ha e a comparison video that shows why I think the way I do If you are Interested. I show them side by side
I have two pythons, 3 and 4.25 inches, i got one as a gift, so got lucky with that. I will get a 6 inch Anaconda when savings allow.
You will not regret it
Which python do you prefer?
I was actually looking to buy a S&W 29-2 in 4 inch but the money they want for them I be better off getting a 4 inch Anaconda
I agree
Wow 😲 what a beautiful pair . I myself have been wanting my S&W 629 deluxe back I sold as a dumb young idiot years ago.
If you want one go get it. You only live once. Thanks for watching

Understood
Really great channel and u have a great since of humor 😂
Lol. Thank you for watching
Very interesting that Colt would craft a a 4.25” Anaconda which is the same specification as a 1911 commander

I think it had to do something with them Importing them to Canada. I could be wrong
Your killing me 😂 now I want one 😂😂😂
Lol. I should have never borrowed that one

Do it. Get one!!! Lol
How much were you able to pick one up for?
They are $1500
I’ve been looking for a smooth faces trigger anyone have a source?
They do not make them for the anaconda to my knowledge
Is that the factory finish on those guns? They look much shinier than mine.
Yes they are the factory finish. Thank you for watching
Ok thanks
Currently trying to figure out which one I want, the 6 or 4 inch. How much kick does the 4 inch have as opposed to the 6 inch?
To be honest they are about the same. It is such a heavy gun that it absorbs alot. It is still. 44 mag answer will have recoil but not as much as a smaller smith
Now all you only need is the 8 inch so then you'll have the full entire set
Right!
@@TerryBenton you remind me of my friend from florida
