If it were $11,999 I’d still have to pass.

Do people that own guns of that ilk shoot them? Probably not, I know guys who get light headed when you talk about shooting a NIB S&W or Colt that is only a $k or two.

I'd consider it--if it fired laser guided ammunition through HUD goggles.

I was going to get one the other day, but my spare change was in my other pants.

Shame really.

That thing is just gaudy to me. What the heck is the pointy bullet looking thing sticking out of the front of the frame supposed to be anyway?

That’s for delivering the coup de gras on a Chupacabra that’s still kicking.

Well, that point always exists. What would I do with a $13k revolver that looks like an art project. I feel lik3 I would get more joy out of a basic model.

Not out of mine!*


*If I sell a LOT of the rest of my guns.

Which isn't happening.

So yeah, out of my price range.

Never seen a Pawn shop have anything that expensive! Lose the gold plating & drop the price 11k and it might be a nice pistol.

Looks like a gun my brother in law would want to borrow.

Lets see. Not a .45 Colt or .44 Special. Not a Single Action. Oh, and the price is a bit high too for a shooter . Do like the sights though. Looks like a gold dot front sight. And the case coloring looks ok... Still, I'll have to pass on this one.

That said, the .44Spec is right up their too... but the .45 Colt is still the king.

Is that what they call a BBQ gun? Imagine getting pork fat splashed on it? :-)

Pass. I can buy many good Colts for that price and all of them will command more attention anywhere.

I’d much rather have 4 Registered Magnums with provenance with them.

The word "garish" springs to mind.
Not impressed at all.

If its at a pawn shop, they probably have about 1/3 that amount into it. Wait 60 days and the price will drop.

Hard pass, even if I could afford it - I buy guns to shoot, not to ogle.
