My count is 7 autos to 6 revolvers. Only two of my revolvers don't have some kind of collector interst, a 642 and a Heritage Rough Rider. Only one of my autos has collector interest, a 39-2. Only one of those collectors hasn't been shot, my 1961 6" Royal Blue Python. In it's 52 years, I'm the third owner, second owner never shot it, and according to the gun shop where I got it, the second owner stated he got it in unfired condition. So only Colt has that honor, AFAIK, and that may never change. I have dry fired it, and it is silky!
