People joke about H&K hating gun owners, but they are quite literally bound by import and export laws. Meanwhile, Colt has no excuses. Colt also had the oppurtunity to move to a more pro gun state but decided not to, with the persuasion of corrupt Connecticut politicians So, as you were saying boy... ?

Very cool

Evidently they are making all snake guns again. Which is cool.

That Viper is pretty snazzy looking - love to see more partial underlug offerings in the revolver game these days. It appears to retain the problems I have with the new Cobra/King Cobra though; the squared, bent trigger guard looks strange, the grip frame isn't compatible with legacy Colt D-frame grips, the trigger face isn't wide enough, and I'd wager the trigger return spring is also a little weak as well I am glad to see Colt continually updating its revolver lineup and giving S&W and Ruger some much needed competition. I do wish they'd heed customer input sometimes too though. (That random third vent they added to the barrel rib on the new 4.25" Python was unnecessary, makes the gun look crowded, and makes it not match the stainless or vintage models for an example.)

Very nice

I really like these.

It only took Colt 50 years, but they finally decided to begin catching up to Smith and Wesson and Ruger on big revolvers. Hell, in another 50 years they might even make one with a caliber larger than .44 mag.

Love that Colt is all about recycling!! ❤

I really like the viper!

If they've got a 6 shot 44, they can make an 8 shot 357. All I'm saying.

Nice revolvers. Eyeing the Kodiak. Now if they would just update their 1911s.
