Colt Python .357 Magnum was sold for 23k USD. Used to be owned by the author of the James Bond books Ian Fleming. This brings back memories of the n64 game goldeneye. That was seriously one of the best multiplayer games back then.

Anyway during the summer I want to go to the shooting range and learn more about guns. I want to be able to shoot a target from a long distance but just for fun though. At this point, my only gun knowledge comes from Unreal Tournament which basically includes a flak cannon and a rocket launcher. /sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

Ahh, the Colt Python...

Brings me back to memories of Vice City, running around shooting people with it...I called it 'Sweet Jesus' cause it dropped dudes w/one shot and send them home...Vice City stories' lead character has one w/a scope on it...

Sexy shit man...

I wish I could trade my piston in for a Colt like this...

Yeah, I've noticed that video games make this one of the most powerful weapons in the game. Great for single-shot kills. /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Let me know when you end up going to the range. There are some of us on here that can give you some pointers.
