Well....I like them. But in fairness, I shoot my 629-3 and 29-2 more. Good video, but they neglected to mention it also came in an 8" barrel version, though they had a pic of one that was ported.

Wow! Definitely not for 1 armed shooters, unless you like punching yourself in the Face.

The opening credits to the earlier seasons of The Sopranos sure looks like a four inch Anaconda being handled. DVD menu only.

Actually, the recoil isnt that bad, they are both big heavy guns. I have shot them both one handed. With the scoped gun, the issue isn't recoil at all, it's the weight of the thing. You get tired just holding it up on target!

I was never a big fan the Anaconda factory rubber grip. They seemed inferior to Hogue grips and slapped your hand harder with magnum loads. Changed it out for real wood.

Of all of the Colt Production *snake* revolvers, the Anaconda saw the least produced. Colt made their Anaconda in fewer numbers in 45Colt caliber. I wonder if there are any 4" Colt Anaconda's here in Liberal utopia (Paradise!) in 45 Colt?

Had a 6 in, 45 C, never seen a 4 inch one, but they are out there, would be neat, I prefer 4 in ,over long barrels.
They made a special order 5 in about '97 or 98.
There was a 8 in 44 hunter with the scope and case at the Saskatoon show last year, 2K.

IIRC the eight inch hunter version with ability mount a scope was named the Kodiak.
