GORGEOUS 1981 Nickel Colt Python 4 in.-COLLECTOR QUALITY 99.99%-Box & Docs
SALE PENDING
Description:
From my private collection I am hesitant but offering one of my favorites so someone can enjoy it as I have. As I have retired I am gradually going to offer some of my collection of various makes and models since I have no kids to leave them to and my wife would have no idea what to do when I pass. This will be for that special picky person like me that only accepts high quality pieces and has searched long enough to know how rare this one is to find for sale.
This is a 1981
NICKEL Colt Python .357/.38 with the desireable 4 inch barrel that looks new! You won't find a turn line, any "frog hair" scratches, milkiness, pitting, or blemishes in the finish on this beauty. I rate it 99.9% (MUSEUM QUALITY IMO) but look at the pictures and you be the judge for yourself. I personally cannot see a flaw! You could shave in the reflection which made it very hard to photograph without picking up reflections in the finish as you will see in one picture of the Rampart showing my camera in the photo! This comes in the Colt box labeled to this gun and includes Colt docs as shown (
Colt statue NOT INCLUDED).
SOLD BUT HAVE OTHERS IN ALL FINISHES AND BARREL LENGTHS-Another of my rare nickel Python just listed here on GI. Feel free to call me with any questions while reading the ad and viewing the photos for any honest detailed inspection and answer to your questions. I do not want any unhappy buyers and happy to keep it if it doesn't sell. I am hoping to gain a list of serious collectors to stay in touch with in the future. Anyone requesting a return, must inspect the gun with the FFL dealer present as a witness during the entire inspection and before you take ownership and leave the dealer's location. DO
NOT DRY FIRE OR PERFORM ANY ACTION CAUSING A TURN LINE ON A FLAWLESS CYLINDER! The gun cannot be returned once it leaves the presence of the FFL PERSON receiving and inspecting the gun. Do not transfer into your name if your plan is to return it. It is impossible to know what someone does with a rare collectable piece like this one once they leave the FFL's presence and it makes returns difficult, especially if someone causes loss in value of the gun due to mishandling or adding a flaw on this rare piece. I ask you please CALL ME with any concerns DURING the inspection if you feel it was misrepresented in any way. If your call goes to VM for any reason, only
if you leave me a message I promise to call back the minute I get the message. I do not chase or return "missed calls" without a message on my voicemail. Any approved return must include every item in the original shipment and everything in the EXACT condition as shipped and shown in the photos.
Any changes to condition or missing items, would cause a denial of a return or a reduction in the amount issued for the return based on the change in value when I receive and inspect the shipment! Subject to a 15% restocking fee if the gun is as described but you just change your mind. If returned, the buyer is responsible for paying all fees including shipping in both directions, insurance and FFL fees on both ends of the transaction.
No sales to California or any other states with restrictions or tougher than usual requirements for receiving handguns.
PAYMENT: Cashier's Checks, Wal-Mart MoneyGram, ZELLE, personal check
SHIPPING: Buyer responsible for actual shipping costs. I need your FFL's information to calculate shipping by UPS with tracking.
