$20K Python? > Revolvers

Posted: 3/19/2008 1:29:12 PM EDT

OK, so I ran across this on gunbroker...Gunbroker Python Ad.

Is this guy on crack? If it is worth what he's asking, what makes that so?

Three inch nickel is rare, but 25 large is just plain nuts. Going rate for nice Pythons at Scheels (which is always high) is $1200 to $1800.

That "poor, retired farmer who can no longer afford to own it" has been smoking what he grows.

Yup, domestic shipping is included. Heck, if it was mine I'd hand deliver it for that kind of scratch.

He had it listed a few weeks ago. I figure he'll keep re-listing it until it sells.

I don't think I know ANYONE dumb enought to pay his asking price, no matter how ignorant of firearms they are!

Even so, he's out of his fucking gourd.

There are allot of goofy prices on gunbroker.

While searching for a 440 corbon desert eagle barrel I ran across this gem www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=95534040 he keeps re listing it. Ive seen it get to $5000 & still not hit the reserve.

This one actually sold a while back. gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=87383948

Even if I was a millionaire, I would not buy something for a higher price than it is worth. He will never sell that revolver remotely at that price.

No real numbers, but best guess is that this is indeed a very rear Python. Worth it to me? No, but I like my wheels to turn the other way.

I'm not spending that kind of money on any gun that doesn't even revolve in the right direction.

No No...you got it wrong...Colt's DO revolve 'right'...it is those other brands that revolve wrong!

That's great. I love Smiffs.

Three-inch Python is extremely rare, don't know if it's THAT rare, but...
