            The 357 was a very low production model, but has always been overshadowed by the Python.

              Very true.Those 357 revolvers should sell for a lot more than they do given the production numbers.I like that classic Colt DA look,not a big fan of the Python and I've owned a couple.

                      That's a beautiful 22, how does it shoot? Compared to others ? Love my k22, would love to try that one out at the range.

                          How about the Trooper in 22 magnum, rare or common?
