    Sent My Python to Colt

    Shipped my 4" Python shooter to Colt's today for refinish. Had picked this one up sometime ago when Python prices weren't sky high - although I didn't think so at the time. If I only knew then, what I know now...

    Going for the Royal Blue treatment. Colt's said $325 plus return shipping. A little worried about the UPS people, but can only trust that the snake will make it back home OK. Now being patient will be the problem.

    You should learn to play Solitaire....Helps pass the time...LOL

    Try this :

    "Countin' flowers on the wall
    That don't bother me at all
    Playin' solitaire till dawn with a deck of fifty-one
    Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
    Now don't tell me I've nothin' to do"

    Wdkline, I did exactly the same thing with a Diamondback .38 last summer. They priced me the same. Took almost
    exactly 3 months. UPS handled it fine both ways. Relax, you will be SOOO happy the day that box comes back.
    Can't wait to see the pix.

    I waited from July 1st, to October 22nd, for my Python refinish. The last three weeks really dragged out. Glad I did, though. Worth every penny.

    Patience, my friend. June will be here before you know it.
    Best, Dennis
