Mas has owned this Colt Python .357 Magnum with custom action by Jerry Moran since the mid-1970s. It has won him some state shoots, First Master at one national match, and one regional championship, and ridden with him on police patrol many times. It has performed flawlessly in matches from the National Police Championships to the Bianchi Cup. It still works fine…because he has taken care of it and not abused it.
I just traded my S & W 3913 and another gun to my twin brother for a 30/40 Krag. Sporterized, it is in very good condition, with a peep sight and checkering.
I had the one my dad owned when he passed away, but I gave it to my one son, a former Navy sailor who also served as an armed response person on his ship, the USS Leyte Gulf. He actually was in for 6 or 8 months longer than his 6 year hitch, as he wanted to finish with his ship on one last deployment.
He had been on one in the Arabian Sea and the Persian Gulf, which at the time was a hotbed, pretty much always is, I guess.
Always liked those double action Smith & Wesson autos. You used to be able to get them cheap when all the agencies dumped them for Glocks. Not cheap now, especially for ones in good condition.
Bad link.

Hey Mas, link not working!
I think you have a broken link. It doesn’t take me anywhere.
The link doesn’t seem to work. It keeps going to a blank page.
Not a good link to Guns Mag.
