Bore Condition: The bore is bright and the rifling is sharp. There is no erosion in the bore.

Overall Condition: This handgun retains about 95% of its metal finish. There are minor nicks and hairline scuffs scattered about the metal. This wear is most notable in the forward edges of the barrel and the cylinder. The cylinder also has a distinct turn line through the finish. Screws are sharp with strong slots. The markings are clear. Overall, this revolver is in about Fine-plus condition.

Mechanics: The action functions properly. There is minor play on each chamber even with the trigger depressed. The double action pull is smooth, and the single action is light. We did not fire this revolver. As with all used firearms, thorough cleaning may be necessary to meet your maintenance requirements.

Box, Paperwork, and Accessories: This Anaconda includes a serial-matching blue factory snap-case, an outer cardboard box, and the manual.

Our Assessment: Colt introduced the Anaconda built on a new, heavy “AA” frame to compete with the Ruger Redhawk and Smith & Wesson Model 29 revolvers. Our impression is that the Anaconda probably offers a smoother double action pull over the Ruger and is more rugged than the Smith & Wesson. This revolver is great for target shooting. Being such a well built gun, it is likely to become a favorite addition to your Colt stable of serpent guns, but with its high condition, Colt collectors will be champing at the bit. Good luck and happy bidding!
