From the Vault: Colt Anaconda Revolver
This video from Brownells Gun Techs showcases a mint condition Colt Anaconda revolver found at Rock Island Auction Company. The Anaconda, a large-frame double-action revolver designed for the .44 Magnum cartridge, is discussed in detail, including its design influences (similar to the Python externally, but with internal differences akin to the King Cobra or Trooper), its all-stainless steel construction with a rare bright polish finish, and its market introduction in 1990 amidst the rise of semi-automatic pistols. The video notes the Anaconda's high production cost and eventual discontinuation around 2002, making this particular example a valuable addition to a firearm collection.
