Colt Anaconda .44 Magnum For Sale

[Martin]

Would like to sell a Colt Anaconda .44 magnum I bought new in Dec 1993. I have the case and owners manual. Will throw in 2 speed loaders. It is in excellent shape. Has had maybe 100 rds fired total. I have to get $1050.00 for it which is right in the ballpark for these at this time, as they are no longer made. I'll try and post a photo if I can find one I've reduced enough.

Wow, I'd love to have that, Martin. But if I bought it, I'm afraid I'd be walking around all the time saying "Go ahead punk,make my day!"

Yeah, but then you'd have a gun geek like me saying "That was blued Smith&Wesson model 29 in Dirty Harry, not a stainless Colt."

But anyway - if it was wearing the 4" barrel I'd be interested. They were super nice revolvers - kind of an upsized Python.

I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

Yea, I knew Dirty Harry had a S/W. I will admit, I didn't know the model #. He must have worked for a low budget department and couldn't afford an Anaconda. None of those punks would have "made his day" if they were staring down the barrel of that stainless steel cannon!

You got that right Mike ! lol

Had some nibbles....No actual commitment yet.

Actually, the .44 Mag was introduced in the mid 50's and the only major firearms companies that made one in that caliber initially was Ruger and Smith - Colt didn't make the large frame Anaconda revolver until 1990 - almost 20-years after the first Dirty Harry movie came out.

Until those movie's came out the revolvers chambered for .44 Mag sold slowly, then after the movie's came out it was hard to find one - people were paying 2 and 3 times MSRP for one!

Jeez - I know too much firearms history... but I did bump your thread.

[Martin]

Thanks for the bump !
