which Colt ?

[Mannlicher]

Thats a hard one. I have owned at least one of each for years and years.

 

[Renfield]

I'm going to buy a Colt Combat Commander

 

[Renfield]

I bought the Commander

 

[Alert]

commander

 

[Colt Delta Elite]

who's paying for it?

Initially, I would have gone with the Python -- beautiful revolver, very collectable.
However, since you added "if you didn't have any guns", I switched over to the Commander -- since semi-auto is my favorite venue.

 

[DMK]

These days you could sell the Python and almost buy two Commanders.

 

[Creature]

Python. If you got a good one, you could buy two commanders with it.

 

[357 Python]

I already have two Pythons, a 4" and a 6". I also have a full size Series 70 MK IV Gov't Model in 45 and am missing a Commander. I chose the Commander for these reasons. Both the Python and Commander are great examples of Colt's products.

 

[SilentHitz]

I've owned a combat commander, and loved it. I'll have to say the Python simply because I don't own one yet.

it amazes me how often people chime in before reading the original post

it shouldn't

but it does

 

[Rampant_Colt]

LoL - this one's a no-brainer...

 

[YukonKid]

Python

70's...Royal Blue...6" would be awesome. (i could put up with a nickel one as well )

YK

 

[CraigC]

A 4¾" barrelled, nickel plated, .44Spl Single Action Army. As long as it was made in the last year.

 

[B.N.Real]

Man,that IS a hard question.

Both outstanding handguns.

Python for me.

 

[Hagar the Republican]

Python. Royal Blue finish. I wouldn't care if it was a 4" or 6".

 

[Kreyzhorse]

Commander. I've never been infatuated with Colt revolvers, but their 1911s on the other hand. I just bought a Springfield TRP but I still must own a Colt.

 

[larry starling]

Python.......

 

[slow944]

Got the Python, so I'll take the commander.

 

[dadofsix]

Both are gorgeous guns. I just happen to love semi-automatics better.

I've got a Wilson Combat Stealth Lightweight for my .45 1911 series pistol and currently have 2-Pythons. Both 6" barrels. 1 is NIB and blued and the other is a polished stainless steel that is my shooter. You just can't go wrong if you do your shopping on a like new Python
