Forty, I have one of it's baby brothers, from the Early days.
The King Cobra, it's a 357. ;)

Glad they got it all straightened out buddy.

Thanks Randy! Does the King Cobra use the same type action as the Python and how do like that KC ?
Well, I know Absolutely nothing about the Pythons.
To my Limited knowledge, I believe the originally the KC and the Anaconda were the same action.
But how those all compare I have no clue. Maybe NCG knows, and can chime in.
I'm more of a SA revolver guy, I just lucked into this one back in late '83.
Had a Trooper for a couple months before I traded it.
Only owned a pair of S&W's, of which I still have one but it's just an ole 32 from who knows how long ago.

Good shooting!

I’ve always wanted an Anaconda. I’ve seen them locally now. I NEED one to go with the Henry 😉
