Colt Anaconda is back

[drillsgt]

I have owned maybe 3 Anacondas and every one of them needed timing work. 1 was screwed when I got (knew of the issue) and it went directly to my guy. The other 2 were bought new, 1 was a real tree and the other a stainless. Both went in to be timed the Real Tree went to Colt. A couple years later it did it again and my guy fixed it and I sold it and the others.

I totally forgot about those realtree ones!

Awe man.. now I have to get one!

MSRP: $1499 so it should be very affordable with the gun buying craziness going on

I guess they saw you coming then if you

I guess they saw you coming then if you bought them.

Yep in the line at the bank making a deposit.

Hope the quality and accuracy are there.

That's where CZ should step in on quality control. Otherwise they could lose face with garbage being released and them in ownership.

I really liked that pistol.

Honestly they need to rework the entire catalog IMHO , I don't know how Dan Wesson will end up fitting in but I would LOVE to get a Colt 1911 with Dan Wesson quality.

Any pictures I never seen one like that.

Nothing in my computer. That was in the mid 80's when I actually owned some Colts.....

 

[shootersix]

Maybe now that cz owns colt, I might consider buying a anaconda!

The colt owned colt made anaconda I owned was a complete piece of $h!7 it went back to colt 3 times and they couldn’t fix it!

I just sent my boy this article and now he wants one of these as well lol. I've created a gun collecting monster.

The Pythons sold way over msrp and b**** threads prove it...

That's why I was laughing at the MSRP. In this current buy craziness they will probably be around $2000+

That's natural for a lot of new guns and i'm sure the Anaconda will do the same. The prices have come down now, I got mine at MSRP as have others, still not great but better than over 2K. I bet if the panic/pandemic/biden wouldn't have happened they would have been comfortably under MSRP by now.

I totally understand...

I've had to tell myself "Lushamania, you must have self-control."

Well, as more and more people get vaccinated things should eventually get back to some semblance of normalcy. This isn't a limited run, so a little patience will pay off, for those who can "afford" it.

Vaccinated for COVID or vaccinated with guns for their addiction?

 

[binkerton]

Gun vaccination does not cure the addiction, only temporarily placates it.
...and I'm referring to all of their new manufactured guns from now on as CZolts (the Z is silent of course)

I like this. I am very pleased to see another quality manufacturer produce a DA .44 Magnum revolver. Were these available in 4" barrels originally? Very surprised to hear all of Churchmouse's had issues! This makes me miss shooting my Redhawk .44...wonder what the Mrs. would say if I asked her to hurry up and have the baby so I can go shooting? We've been in the hospital since Tuesday.

 

[Leadeye]

I still believe that they could engineer a 9mm today that would be close to the old 1903 Pocket Hammerless. A 9mm pocket gun, Colt name and history, with the good ergonomics and old school look. I think it would be a great seller.

The Anaconda will be a nice gun but I think will produce limited sales.

Yes, they were originally available as 4 inch models and some were made in 45 Colt as well.
