Worth of a Colt Grizzley .357 revolver?

[BenDover]

I may pick up a slightly used (200 -300 rounds shot) Colt Grizzley revolver and wanted to know how much I should pay for this model. It's a limited edition (2000 or 2500 made)made from a Cobra frame and Python 6" barrel. Any inputs would be appreciated....Steve

This guy is talking about the same gun that I saw in the store for $550 used... He posted it November 17, 1999 - 0 responses...

Is this gun so rare that people don't even know about it? How does cobra frame/python barrel combo sounds?

I can add that Colt Grizzly is a stainless steel 6 shot revolver with 6" barrel (it has compensator). The barrel has red grizzly bear paw mark on the side.

I can get S&W 686+ brand new for a little less money, which one should I go with?

Oh, and I can't find anything about this gun on-line or on any forum... With all the searching I did the only thing I found is this forgotten November thread - no other place even mentions Colt Grizzly

Hope that helps.
