Mechanics: The action functions correctly and the cylinder lockup is tight. The double action trigger is smooth and the single action is crisp. We did not fire this handgun. As with all used firearms, a thorough cleaning may be necessary to meet your maintenance standards.

Box, Paperwork & Accessories: The revolver comes in a blue plastic Colt Case with serial-matching label, two HKS speedloaders, and an assortment of factory paperwork including manual. The case has three holes at one end, one very small, one about dime-sized and one about 2 1/2″ across. Due to the double-walled construction, these holes do not show on the interior of the case. Overall, the case is in about Fair-Good condition. The speedloaders are in Excellent condition.

Our Assessment: Colt introduced the Anaconda built on a new, heavy “AA” frame to compete with the Ruger Redhawk and S&W Model 29 revolvers. Our impression is that this revolver probably offers a smoother double action pull than the Ruger and is more rugged than the S&W. This revolver is great for hunting using .44 Magnum cartridges and with .44 Special for casual days at the range. This pistol comes in its original plastic case and with a pair of speedloaders, ready for home defense or carry. This revolver is in Fine-Excellent condition with about 97% of its stainless finish and little sign of use. Please see our photos and good luck!
