About Us: Private Collector of high conditioned quality handguns


Description:
From my personal collection, I offer this gorgeous 1978 Royal Blue Colt Python with the 6" barrel and checkered grips. (SOLD BUT HAVE OTHERS IN MY COLLECTION in various finishes AND barrel lengths) This was purchased from the original owner in GA. The gentleman that purchased this Python new in 1978, said he thinks he may have only test fired 1-2 cylinders before putting it away all these years in his humidity controlled safe! I personally have never loaded or fired the gun. There is a faint turnline that looks more prominent in pictures due to brighter lighting and closer photos, but in person is it is very faint. There is barely any evidence of carbon rings burnt on to the face of the cylinder. This is in the rare Royal Blue finish with beautiful original checkered wood Colt grips with the gold medallions. The original owner stated this is the original box and the docs are in the box. During my "close up" inspection, I only found a tiny spot on the barrel like the sharp end of a needle touched it so this is without a doubt one of the finest conditioned classic Royal Blue Colt Pythons in the box I have had the pleasure to own!! Check out the detailed photos and judge for yourself. It should be priced a lot higher IMO but I priced it based on my investment instead of what the market may allow based on other current higher priced Guns International ads.

When the gun is received at your FFL, all inspections and addressing concerns must be done in front of the FFL that received the shipment. Call me to discuss any concerns during the inspection. I cannot be responsible for the condition of the gun once it leaves the FFL premises. The gun should not be dry fired or cylinder spun in the closed position multiple times to avoid creating a deeper turn line and causing the value of this collectible gun to decline. Returns require buyer to pay all shipping costs and FFL fees for both parties and shipping both ways. If you plan to fire a collector piece like this one that has stored without firing for around 45 years, it is recommended after purchasing, to let a gunsmith do a full inspection, cleaning, and oiling before firing! "No warranty expressed or implied". Guns will be shipped to FFL dealers only and a copy of their FFL license must be provided in advance for shipping estimates. No sales or shipments to California or states with restrictions.

PAYMENT: Cashier's Checks, USPS Money Orders, Wal-Mart MoneyGram, Zelle, or personal check. Personal checks "may" require a few extra days to clear my Wells Fargo account before I can ship. Adding nsurance is at the buyer's expense.
