Product Description

For sale is an absolute rarity of US firearms manufacturing and one of the most sought-after investments in the international arms market: An original Colt Anaconda in the powerful caliber .44 Remington Magnum. This premium revolver features the legendary 6-inch barrel and can also fire the milder .44 Special for a pleasant training experience at the shooting range.

The Anaconda is the undisputed queen of Colt's famous Snake Gun series. It was the very first .44 revolver in the history of the renowned manufacturer from Hartford, Connecticut, and the first to be made entirely from robust, rust-resistant stainless steel from the very beginning. This set new standards in the segment of heavy large-caliber revolvers.
A true collector's gem from the first production year

This specimen is not just any Anaconda – it is a tangible piece of history. The extremely low serial number MM00416 unequivocally proves that this revolver comes from the very first, strictly limited First Edition production series of 1990/1991. It bears the number 416 worldwide. The official German civil proof from 1991 perfectly documents this contemporary originality. Early models from this era are reputed among collectors to possess the highest manufacturing and fitting quality from the Colt factory, as a significantly high proportion of manual craftsmanship was involved.
The highlights of this revolver

Excellent condition: The revolver is in outstanding, age-appropriate condition. The original Semi-Bright Stainless finish shines beautifully and shows only minimal, absolutely normal handling and turn marks on the cylinder. The weapon has primarily been cherished as a collector's piece in a safe.
Mirror-like top barrel: The interior of the barrel is absolutely mirror-like, with the lands and grooves sharply defined. The timing of the cylinder is perfect, and the lockup is absolutely crisp. Nothing has been shot soft here.
100% original wooden grips: The revolver is equipped with the original, contemporary walnut wood grips, including the original inlaid Colt medallions. These grips are hardly available in original form today and provide perfect recoil control even with heavy .44 loads, as well as a classic appearance.
The most sought-after configuration: The 6-inch barrel with the distinctive, fully ventilated rib gives the Anaconda its stocky, unmistakable face. It offers shooters the perfect balance and a long, precise sighting line.
