Recently acquired a 4.25" Anaconda in addition to the 6" and 8" models I previously purchased. Hands down the finest looking and performing 44 Mag double action revolver available today. I harvested two whitetails last fall with the 8" model. Only criticism of the new Anaconda (or Python) is the rear sight. I've replaced all my new model Python and Anaconda rear sights with Wilson Combat adjustable rear sights.

I'm extremely glad that Colt has returned to the revolver market with classic designs that have been freshened up.

I just received mine about two weeks ago and simply can not believe the double action trigger pull. I may be the best of any hand gun!

Now that CZ has purchased Colt, it would be a fine idea to make a video about Colt's plans for the future. Every firearms enthusiast in the nation wants to see Colt do well under new ownership, but they also know that some less than wonderful things have tarnished Colt's reputation as well. Addressing this in a straight forward way would go a long way towards letting your fans know what we can expect.

I just got the 8 inch barrel version. Can’t wait to take it out and try it on the range. The action is unbelievably smooth.

My wife and fur babies got this weapon today for my birthday. I love it.

That designer should slow down on his excitement and contain his willingness to explain all the pride and joy in the project.

I would love to see a topic tuesday on the Gold Cup National Match! It would be great to see the features and finish up-close and discussed in detail.

I love it! The spirit of Sam Colt compels me!

It's great they are coming back out with it. I want a 4 inch or in 45 long colt

Nice revolver it's good to see them bring back the 44 magnum back. I'll wait and hope they do one in a 4inch barrel. That will make a nice carry for bear country .

Lessons learned the hard way: Fact 1: If you so much as take the side plate off, you void the warranty. Fact 2: If you attempt to buff out a scratch in the finish, you void the warranty. Fact 3: Colt does not sell parts to their revolvers. On their website, if you select Accessories > Parts, the website points you to Midway USA and Brownells (both of which have a pathetically limited selection).

Hopefully I’ll find one! Still waiting for a brass bead or gold front sight for my 2020 Python. I wish Colt would produce the interchangeable front sight in-house so maybe we could actually buy one. For the past year it’s been an unusable feature.

Great video and Thank you for bringing back great revolvers. Guns w/o obvious mimed parts, weird barrels and hillery holes. An Anaconda in 4 inch and A Diamondback. 357 mag In 3 inch. Best Wishes! M.H

Great production on this video guys. Good luck with the "new" wheel gun!

TheColtFirearms The anaconda is my favorite .44 Magnum revolver. Finally, great job for bringing it back! I wonder if you guys would tell Airsoft companies with a Colt license to please create an full metal Airsoft gas, spring, or CO2-powered airsoft replica of the Anaconda to celebrate the occasion.

Never have had any issues with the original anaconda, just a awesome firearm period

Great job Colt, keep it up! Picked up my anaconda yesterday. Can’t wait to get to the range

Got both length Anacondas yesterday at just under msrp and wow the action is smoother than both the new pythons I got

I love mine! Thanks Colt!

The trigger is so much smoother than the Python. It's soft and silky and breaks like glass. The single action trigger is lighter than 5 lbs. Double action is steady also. If I miss the bullseye it's because I wasn't concentrating. I was shocked. I've had the Python longer and the trigger still not as smooth yet as the Anaconda was out of the box.

From what Ive experienced so far the new Anaconda is better new and improved over the old Anaconda. For one the new trigger feels nicer and is more smooth to me than the old one. I think Colt has a serious winner here! I paid about $1800 for mine and Im happy to report it is well worth it. The only other production revolver that comes close to the quality is the Dan Wesson revolvers and sadly I havent seen the new ones for sale anymore. If thats the case than get the Colt!

I have Backordered one on the only gun shop I found online that accepts back order. I also have subscribed on dozens of gun shops online to notify me when in stock!

Exciting info - Super news on the new Anaconda. I will definitely order one..

Get it right, before shipping them. Respect those who support your products. Don't use us as beta testers.

Love Colt's

Wasn't sure what to think about this new gun . After watching this informative video , I'm Impressed !!!!

Finally!! We miss you Justin 😎👍🥇

Just bought a 2021, anaconda 8 inch barrel, it will shot hotter loads than Smith Wesson, love the looks, of the gun

If only you could get one for the msrp of 1,600 the ones I see available are in the 3-4k range LMAO

I’ll be waiting for the 4 inch version myself. This would be a back up gun so carrying a 6-8inch barrel as a back up gun is insane. I have the 4.25 inch Python and it’s a perfect size for a back up back country gun.

Great insight on the new Anaconda. It is good to see you guys back with the videos.

Colt could've been the most iconic American gun maker. They stopped selling ARs to the public. They thought their gvt contract was all they needed. Then, the exclusive contract went away. You can get an AR from Colt. CR6920. Remember the LE6920? What you get now and what you got then are NOT the same. The LE6920 of old was IDENTICALto the gvt contract military guns, except for the fire control and 14.5 vs 16 in barrel. The lowers were marked M4 Carbine, the current ones are marked Carbine. The barrel was marked 13629, the stock, and the charging handle was all marked 13629. The new guns have nothing that makes someone want a Colt over everything else except the Pony. FN sells a tribute gun thats a military replica. They have the receiver markings but not the other markings because they can't. Colt owns rights for that and doesn't allow it. Colt could sell an exact match to their military contract guns, once again, but they don't. They are trying to be competitive price wise, perhaps, but have alienated the purists. The pony says military legit and in reality it's not. It used to be . The old LE6920 was. Gotta find an old one if you want the real deal. Just like the Python,King Cobra, Anaconda, or Diamondback . They used to be awesome guns. Top tier stuff. Now, they do just enough to get by, slap the name on it and charge like it's old school product, even though you can put them side by side and clearly see they are not the same.

Hope they’re planning on making a 4 inch.

I hope next year brings the diamondback in .38 and .22lr!

Like a Taurus in double action I get light primer hits a third of the time

The best Firearms ever made,

The big question is can CZ get Colts act together so Colt will produce more then a small trickle of product.

Put a deposit on one and just hopefully waiting for it to be put on the California Roster. Any idea of when this beauty will be put on that Roster?

I have a 6 inch Anaconda coming soon! Super stoaked!! Anxious to try out fullhouse magnums

Kevin is a damn genius.

Also handloaders can load 44 Russian as well

Wilson Combat makes improved Colt Steel rear adjustable sights and front sight. This Anaconda needs that improved sighting capability from Wilson Combat.

Very nice but I think a 5" and an 8" would be a better option maybe they will do a shorter barrel

“This large frame leaf spring design is a 1st from Colt.” Glad there’s a full line of DA’s again, but a large frame leaf spring’s been done before: Colt New Service. Yes it wasn’t chambered in 44MAG but the New Service was also out of production before the cartridge debuted. Just the New Anaconda isn’t the 1st large bore Colt leaf spring revolver.

Hope this snake gun doesn’t come off the factory line with problems.

I'll take Two, please! LOL!!! Great Gun! I just purchased a Python! I'm just waiting for my Permit!

With Garrett Cartridges of Texas this 2021 Anaconda ought to be able to use the Hammer Head 330 grain hardcast gas-check flat meplat bullet loading that they load.

Will it come out in eather a .45 Colt or maybe a .41 mag ?

Why don't we have the Colt picatinny rail available yet?

Are they bringing back 45LC chambering ?

I have always wanted one in a four inch size. The originals were very nice, and I am glad to see it back.

Looking for a great holster, for the new Colt Anaconda 6". Chest or shoulder? Any ideas?? Thanks!

What about the timing problems on the Anaconda

I hope the next revolver they remake will be the police positive special.

Bought one a couple weeks ago. It pairs nicely with my 2020 Python, as they are 6" barreled. Can't wait until both are reissued in the royal blue finish. Hmmmm, there goes the kids' college tuition accounts. 🤔

.22 6" Diamondback?

Hey, was looking for some help on the Anacondas, please. Specifically it seems there's 2 engraved models out? There's the Davidson engraved models with rubber grips, and another with wood grips, the label marked "Armory Style B+ Coverage Cut Engraving," "Custom Shop Model." The UPC code appears the same. From pictures it does appear, maybe, there's slight differences in the engraving. Of course, I'm looking at internet pictures, so, there's that. :) Aside from different grip sets, can anybody tell me the differences between the engraving, if any? Is one of higher quality? Is there any other differences between the 2 models? Any help is appreciated. Thank you!

So glad this happened! Can't wait to get one

They need to try different variety of brand name ammo to truly test it out

You can’t find ether the Python or Anaconda. Is Colt going to keep producing both for the foreseeable future?

Recently bought one.........previously owned a 1992 used model Anaconda more than a decade ago, and apparently, that particular revolver suffered prior usage as a camp tool. It was beat, hence I sent it back on a three day inspection. This new model six incher is superbly finished, generally pleasing, overall. I have just one issue with my new Anaconda; the trigger face has three sharp edges which will cut my trigger finger. Colt should have made the trigger face SMOOTH, not sharp edged, serrated. Smooth triggers should be available as replacements for the current sharp cutter triggers. I'm going to remove my trigger, and reface it to prevent injuries as a result of firing the revolver. I'd love to talk to the person at Colt, who thought a sharp faced trigger would be the way to go. FOOLISH PERSON they are! ~DDZZ

Can you custom order a 4 inch barrel?

I looked at the new python, didn’t really like it that much bought the Smith and Wesson, 686+ and the performance center 357 mag but I did order the anaconda. It’s just a fabulous gun.

You’re not rounded out. What about the 22LR Diamondback ?

Hmm... My new Python may need a big sister.

But will the cylinder stop spinning when you shoot 44Mag? Will the rear sight wobble? Will it be another nightmare like the 2020 Python ended up being for thousands of owners?

A “gun club” in CT screams nothing but restrictions. Move to a free state already.

Is it going to be available in California?

Nice

Were Can I Get That Colt Safe Behind You Justin I Need A New Stable To Put all My New Colts In 😎😊😀

Will it have tool marks like the Python?

Was this video recorded a year or two ago?

Can't wait to get my hands on one!!

Any hope for a 4 inch and/or a Kodiak Custom Shop Anaconda?

Where can I buy one at?

Is the cylinder considered a single point lock-up ?. I do not see even a detent on the end of the ejector rod .

Wow, no video upload for the past 7 months until now?!? Couldn’t you post a video about Colts other products or acquisition by CZ in all that time?!?

When can I get one???!!!???

Make a 22 on the python frame next

I agree with the other comments, where is the front sights for the new snake guns? A lot of new Cobra/King Cobra owners will like an orange ramp sight or brass bead. Colt brags about the option of being able to change out the front sights with a simple turn of an Allen key but there is no availability online to purchase new sights. Smh

Will Colt still be Colt once CZ takes over design and production decisions? Will the CZ Colts be indistinguishable from pre-CZ Colts. I'm glad I have my two actual real Colts instead of what CZ might do to the brand.

FINALLY!!!! My original Anaconda became a "safe queen" and I have not shot in years. Now I can purchase one to actually shoot, after I take out a second mortgage.....

About time!

The only question is do I get the 8" or the 6"? First world problems.

Could we say the old Anaconda is a Larger Colt Mark V revolver version and the New Anaconda es a Larger New Python?

detective special next pls

First thing I will do is replace the Hogues...

Was it updated because Colt is now CZ-USA Dan Wesson?

"Ach du lieber, mein schatz"! Gorgeous gun!! Wish it would have had a nice MATT FINISH so as to not show fingerprints! How is the LOCKUP of the crane to the frame? Not discussed here, a bad omission (maybe intended?)! Can it compare to a Ruger revolver, with three lockup points, especially at the front of the crane?! My guess is NO! I'd hate to see the MSRP - whoa mamma!!! But nonetheless a gorgeous gun. For $19.95 plus S&H, I'd buy one ASAP! Probably wrong on the cost though!!!

is this the berlin turnpike? Where's the Grand National bruh?

"Give your Colt stocking dealer a call".... Yeah sure did.... The ones listed locally near me in Northwest Indiana (theres 5), either A) Didn't know anything about the Colt Anaconda 2021, and couldn't order it. B) Or you cannot order from them, "whenever they come in, just gotta keep checking". I literally had one of your Colt stocking dealers tell me that they will not order me one, I would have to come in or find a "private seller". It's ridiculous, the dealers know they probably scalp people and over charge for it. This inside buyer stuff is ridiculous, look as of right now there is ONE up on Gunbroker, that is not from an FFL, but from a person. That guy wants a $5000 buy out for this. Also! I had a family member call Colt two days ago, and explained our situation, someone from Colt said we should "shop out side of the area or out of state". How is one suppose to even buy one of your products, if this how the industry is going to treat people interested in one of your products from your product line?

Chinese internal parts ?

454 casul please

Me want !!!!

Anyone know when and if these will be available in Commiefornia?

Now how can we trust the opinions of the ones selling the product..... just kidding, got the 8inch.

I had an old anaconda it had over a 3/32" of play in the crane so the cylinder never locked tight and it had a lot of cosmetic forging defects sold it and until they restart selling ARs to public I'm not buying anything from them

No four inch????

Would have been nice if the person who assembled my anaconda didn’t drop the cylinder assembly on the edge of the yoke and dent the edge. Would have been nice if my 6 inch Python didn’t have a chip out of the crown. Would have been nice.
