New Colt Anaconda PDT .44 magnum
« on: November 14, 2016, 04:48:32 PM »
I just got this back from my gunsmith...cleaned and lubed and checked out. It is a New Old Stock Colt Anaconda .44 Magnum, PDT ( Ported, drilled & Tapped ). I love the 8" version & the fact that it has the factory porting. If any of you have ever shot one before, the porting helps keep your feet firmly planted on the floor. I bought this as a gift to myself to celebrate the results of the election.

Having a gun in your hand is much more effective than having the entire police department on the phone!

I like it, celebrate the 44th president leaving by welcoming a .44 into the collection.

Actually, Trump is now our 45th President. . . . but who's counting. lol.

So, that said. . . . . You'll have to go buy a .45 something now Norm. lol

Enjoy that Anaconda. . . . .wow. Beautifully kept specimen.

I thought that Trump was the 44th too! That's why I bought the .44 magnum! Now I can buy a special .45!  Thanks Eric!

Very nice.

You may now have to go find a M1917 to celebrate the inauguration.

Probably will not be near as nice, but do have more than a few choices for a Colt chambered for either of the .45s.
