I love the fact when shooting the gong and seeing the actual round being visible during flight right before it hits. It just plain cool.
Amen. Not to mention when all 5/5 hit 🤤

I thought not! Lol
Pardon me. I meant Hickok.
No disrespect .
He's an awsome ol dude!
You can see the round almost EVERY time he hits the gong.
Yep
Oversimplified but
There’s something about watching an old man firing off a hand-cannon in the middle of the woods that brings me comfort.
Appreciate it, hickock45.

I make these guns every single day 8 hours a day the frames are forged then machined its a super cool process and glad I'm apart of it
Cool!
David, I heard the newer batches that start with serial AC2 are considerably better than the preproduction releases, any truth to that?
Micheal Steven's, yes there they are machined from forge not cast or mim and high grade heat tempered stainless
"Glassy" is how I have always described my Python. The finish looks like Black Glass and the trigger is smooth as greased glass.
Watching Hickok videos while in the delivery room. Baby #2 on the way! Hopefully he’s welcomed into the world with some gong magic! Thanks Hickok!
The 44M is by far the best pistol to target shoot. You know when you hit the target and it lets you know you have shot a real gun.
So what's a real gun?
.44 and up, revolvers only

Wow!
One wonders why Colt sat there for so many years on a license to print money and never- until now- brought back the Python and Anaconda
Poor management, and only focusing on military and police contracts .CZ owns them now hopefully things will change. shame it's not a US owned company anymore but not the first time that was sold out of country, it sold to an Iraqi businessman back in the 90s.
Corporate Constraints
@Some Guy 99 I'm pretty sure that they still make the Single Action Army. :)
They wanted to wait until there was no ammo available!
They were actually losing money making the anaconda, that's why they stopped. It aint complicated.

The old Anacondas had a coil mainspring. The new ones have a leaf mainspring, the same action as the Python, which is why the new Anaconda feels like a Python.

"Because they want to."

@Shinshocks sounds like you need to get involved with that, so she doesn't get fleeced. Besides that, if there are any guns in his collection that you like, maybe he'll leave those to you
There is just something about revolvers I love
I like em alot aswell.
Don't own any guns cause i ain't from the US. But i've been to a range once in my country back in 2013. And tried 3 pistols for the first time. A Glock 17 9mm, Beretta 92FS 9mm and a S&W 686 .357 mag.
Out of the 3 the S&W was the best feeling.
The Glock felt like a toy gun very plasticky.
The 92FS was in between, quite fine and better than the Glock.
I like Glocks but maybe i just sucked when i shot that one.
I hear ya. I still prefer a 38. Special with no hammer for personal carry!
@@Gielderst yeah, I like the revolver more too. I'm thinking of getting the s&w 686 357 or ruger gp100 357 stainless 4.2 in. I do like the look of the Ruger vaquero 45 single action though.

I am not that young anymore. Already 46, turning 47 years old this year, 2021. But hell, my fiance and I were wishing hickok45 was our grandpa. Just so much love and respect for this man since my grandpa was already 3-4 years since he left this world. Hickok45 reminds me of my grandpa. My dream gun has always been the Colt .44 magnum in 8 inches barrel. The Colt Anaconda .44 mag to be exact. Hope to save up enough to buy this gun on my birthday. I'm from the Philippines by the way. More power, health, and long life to you Grandpa Hickok45. We love you here in the Philippines.
My Anna was the first pistol I bought on my own from layaway back in 1993 for $439 dollars. Got it for shewing bears away when I camped and loved the magazine ad I saw of the Alaskan float plane guide that said he trusted the Anaconda with his life. She runs just fine and has never failed me.
One of the few pistols that will kill any animal in North America on two or four legs.
"Good, that's one less loose ends."
NO!
Yep
*BANG*

I’m in love with this pistol I’m 65 years old and have loved it for probably 50 years!!!.
He said, "must've put a blank in it!" That's why Hickok is the greatest, he's so eloquent at being a BS artist! I love you man!
I enjoy watching Hickok videos. So knowledgeable. This man is a national treasure!
I bought a Anaconda back in the early 90's, 8" inch barrel, and ported, for only $479. Could have sold it a few years ago for $4000. I loved it too much to sell.
Money is so easy to spend and be gone..in a blinking of an eye.
After the sales money is gone..then one Will realize what a stupid decision it was to sell..
Sold a circa 1960 2"-barreled Colt Python .357 several years ago..made a killing..but missing it now kills me every time l think of it.
The Legend has spoken. Listen up folks.
They brought it back as cz own it now I would think
Agreed
I really hope colt brings this back in 45lc too. I've heard the old ones could handle +p 45lc which is a great round. Over the last decade or so Ruger has dominated the market in the furnishment of 45 colts that could handle the +p. It would be nice to see some variety in double action revolvers again.
Why not just make a 454 Casull chambering, then it could shoot both?
@@Josh47147 head spacing issue not to mention if you dedicate to one chambering you will run into less issues when reloading and developing hand loads.
Thats an excellent idea!
Now that CZ owns Colt perhaps they have a bright future.
I just bought my 1st cz yesterday p01 will see how it goes
@@ctc2469 CZ has a good reputation for quality and I very much hope they can return Colt to its once winning ways.
@@ctc2469 love my cz compact. Such an amazing gun
@@brianmoore1164 they definitely haven’t stepped in yet but let’s hope so
@@xCaPz Colt changed hands several times and it was never done correctly so I expect that bringing back Colt will be a major undertaking. The big question is do they want to. They may only be looking for a U.S. based manufacturing location so they can try for military contracts. On the other hand, if they recognize the huge fan base and name recognition of Colt they may bring back the quality consumer firearms. We just have to wait and see.
What a lovely looking hand cannon . Beautiful
The original Anaconda was much more akin to the Trooper, or even the old New Service, than it was to the Python. With the redesign and re-release of both models, they are much more similar in all but size.
I've been watching your channel for years and you still are the best out there
Just purchased my first Colt .. now I know what the big fuss is all about, absolutely love everything about it. Son and I shot boxes the first time out 😊
I'm happy to see the re-emergence of all Colt's snake guns; giving the current generations a chance to own them. Hope there's a Diamond-back coming soon (like the Duke's model in "Brannigan"). Impressive, that you like it and there are no negatives about this Anaconda. Great vid, Ty.
Steve McQueen also used a Diamondback snubby 38 Sp. in the great movie "Bullitt"
Fingers crossed that we get some high-polish blued models sometime soon.
i feel like with those hands, Hickok is a beast with a basketball
"The anaconda is a blowed up pie thun."
-Hickok45
Blowed up good, too.
Just FYI, We, in the rest of the English speaking world, pronounce it "Py-Thun". Not "Py-Thon".
So to hear Hickok pronounce it correctly is music to our ears 😆😆
@@thejonoaffair no, no "we" don't.

YES BABY! MY FAVORITE GUN REVOLVER IS FINALLY AGAIN IN PRODUCTION!!!
AND FINALLY IN DOUBLE ACTION !!! THATS WHAT WE ALL WANTED !!!!!!!!!!
44 MAGNUM COLT ANACONDA 8 INCH BARREL IS MY FAVORITE !!!!!!
The Colts are legendary. Inherited a Python and a mk 3 Trooper both in 357 from my late grandfather that were from the glory days. Where his 6" Anaconda in 44 went I dont know, but I wish I had it. Both are smooth as silk and Ive had several offers, but nobody can afford them....They'll be in the safe for the rest of my days. Also a Ruger 8" 44 that I wish I would have been able to have. Such is life....
I cant stop watching this video! I gotta have an Anaconda now! Love watching you shoot for 10 years !
His laugh after every shot tells me everything I need to know
Thank you for the FUN you bring in these difficult days.
I have a S&W 29 and it rocks !
Would love an Anaconda too.
My Python is smooth as glass.
Colt really got the mechanics down on these pistols.
Great video, thank you Hickock45
Just bought my colt Anaconda and I’m in love
"Lets smoke a little pot, and get off on the right foot" 😂😂😂
I really enjoy the videos and the knowledge you have to share, Thank you! I have the old Anaconda a no dash, recessed and pinned 629, and just bought the new Anaconda. Of the 3 the new one is hands down the nicest and smoothest of them all. The 629 is second and almost equally as nice but no comparison to the smooth trigger of the Colt. Fit and finish it is a great shooter and investment. Much more comfortable to shoot than the old Colt. Changed grips to wood and looks beautiful. Old Anaconda is on consignment at local shop, out with the old and in with the new!
Loved the video so much I went out and picked one up. It handles the 44 round with ease. Deadly accurate Thanks for the recommendation Hickok.
Nice to see this beauty back out there. How can you not love the looks of a Colt Python or Anaconda?
Recently bought a Python. I paid a bit over MSRP at $1800 after taxes. Everywhere else I looked for one, they were about $2000-$2600.
Normally wouldn't pay over MSRP, but I really wanted it.
I hope they come out with the .45 LC version. I owned one back in the '90s and loved it.
you know hes a legend when theres a senior with 6 million subscribers
Passed on a 4 inch Anaconda at a gun show years ago for $450, went back to the table minutes later and it was gone. Kick myself in the head for not buying it.
This is the saddest thing I've ever heard.
😪😪😪
Grabbed a 6" ages ago for $425 and still love it....
Sad
I bought my 6" King Cobra new in 1987 for $400. It has a low serial number. Sometimes you get lucky.
That's what you get for being a cheap moron.
You missed out on making a Dirty Harry reference in the beginning! "Did I fire six shots or only five...?"
Just bought this gun! Gotta wait 2 weeks to pick it up. It has the smoothest trigger I've ever pulled. Thank you Hickok45 for your demonstration of this fine pistol!
Just purchased a ruger redhawk .44 magnum. That things a beast.
I got a model 629 5". Also a beast.
My hand hurt thinking of how hard a kick that gun has. I fired one round outta that sum bitch and the earth shook.
I have never shot a .44 magnum. I have a Ruger GP100 stainless steel 357 magnum revolver with a 4 inch barrel.
Gotta get one man. My SP101 feels like a toy ever since lol.
I bought my Anaconda from Sports Authority back in the 90s. I don’t remember what I paid for it. Mine has the 6 inch barrel. A heavy weapon!
this guy has more strength in one arm than me in the whole body a 44 Magnum revolver takes it as a 22 lr revolver great😯😯💪
The only channel worth actually watching youtube. Keep it up hickok45 and VOLS.
Hopefully Ruger brings back the .44 Magnum semi auto carbine.
Now That I’d pay $1500 for. Wish I had bought one way back years ago when I had the chance.
Keep it light weight and simple and affordable like a 10/22 on roids that’s gas operated it be a handy little rifle.
@@Ericthered21 if they bring it back it’ll likely be everything you said but affordable. lol
Would be great if they did.
I kept rewinding the beginning when the Bike starts up and pulls away. That sound is my childhood.

I mean, the sound of freedom is nice, but not 1500$ nice.
@@Kiba69420 but it worth that kind of money don't you think
@@aminelucky2518 a Pistol? No. Its the same reason i wont buy a desert eagle now. They went from 750$ to 1500$.... for no reason other than they could charge that much and people would pay it. There isnt a shortage of parts, there isnt new innovative design work thats worth just that much more. Its worth what its worth.
The real question is, why are people willing to pay more for one pistol than they are another. If you laid a 2021 Anaconda next to a Ruger GP100, without seeing the logos, would you be able to tell from handling or shooting? No. So why is one 600$ and one 1500$?
@@Kiba69420 thanks for your feed back but i was talking how can you bay gun easily in USA not Discussing the acutely price ps i love Tennessee and Kentucky freedom
@@Kiba69420 Love my GP 100!
A thing I like about guns and the gun creators is that they’re somewhat isolated from today’s ever expanding world of computerizing everything and over complicating things. I’m glad the latest and greatest Anaconda doesn’t come with a cylinder sensor or barrel heat sensor, it’s just a gun. They very well could all of that and it’d work like a charm, but it wouldn’t feel like a gun after that. It’s got all it needs
Thanks for another good video, Hickock. I've passed on the "new" Python, as I have several "old" ones. I bought an Anaconda from a big snake gun/premium dealer, on the big auction site a few years ago, and had a very unpleasant time returning it, when it arrived with a timing issue. Now that the '21 Anaconda has been in the wild for ~8 months, I'm ready to buy the new, improved 44, but it appears folks aren't quite done overpaying for them, so I'll be patient. Checked ammo prices for 44 mag & 44 Special yesterday, on my favorite ammo app, and at $1.20-$2 per round for 44 mag, & .70 for 357 mag, It would be nice to have an ammo sponsor. Merry Christmas! :)
I've only fired one old Anaconda. One of the smoothest revolvers I've ever shot. Like glass.
new one much better
Old Anaconda’s on Gunbroker all have bids on them, GB flooded with new ones and no bids. Everyone likes what they like.
I miss my original Anaconda in 45 Colt..Tack driver and perfect out of the box. I sold it for 10 times the purchase price a few years back and regretted it.
Now I can replace it.
i love the genuine laughter after a shot lmaooo like he rlly enjoys it
Nice revolver but I'll keep my 629 Anaconda is way overpriced for what you get
It's really hard to beat a Smith and Wesson revolver.
The newer colts are certainly nice but they're certainly taking full advantage of the Colt name without the previous hand-fitted quality that used to have.
진정 즐기시는듯 쏘고나서 헛헛 웃으시는게 너무 좋음
I beleive the original Anaconda was based on the King Cobra action,which was cheaper and easier to produce than the Python action.
Anaconda is 100% identical to the new Python action except even beefier, and that side plate/hand issue that the first production run of pythons had seems to be non existent
This looks like a real winner ... thanks for your honest opinion, as always!
Stay safe and take care
"Lets see if it will go through that tin can... It did." Lol
Watched this video a long time ago. Finally got an 8" a couple of weeks ago. Yes, this video was the reason I initiated my quest to own one. Thanks for the inspiration. Already ordered Wilson Combat sight upgrades after researching options that have been brought forward in February 2024.
Who else wants him to do a video on the purpose and origin of different bullets/calibers?
That would be a 73 hour video.
" You thought I lost my train of thought, I Didn't, I'm a genius " 😂😂😂 my day was made.
The first bullet shot just had me laughing, such power.
There's nothing more old school than a revolver! It's so sweet.
Can’t help but be impressed by the difference between this and the 9mm on the watermelon... wow what a difference. Not to mention the kitty litter container.
yep, that's 44 mag for ya it deletes things nothing fancy it just makes things not exist any more

From under the Famed Blue Dome Hartford Connecticut. Samual Colt’s tradition of superb revolutionary revolving repeating hand guns.
The brewery over there next to the old factory isn’t half bad either!
The range looks Good! Those last rounds really left the Gong resonating.
Hickok45's videos are so much better than those ridiculous videos that start out with some tacticool dude shooting at close targets and getting winded from running 2 or 3 feet

Such a sweet gun. .41 mag is another sweet one and more forgiving on recoil. It's pretty much a reloaders cartridge now though.
I agree with you on the 41 mag. If they resurrected the 10mm then why not the 41 mag? I read an article in the American Rifleman magazine which said there were a couple experimental Pythons made in 41 mag. What better way to revive the 41 mag than to offer it in the Colt Python?
@@jonbaniak9097 There isnt a demand. Society is knuckle dragging ignorant about the smallest, double stack polymer pistol they can get their hands on. I agree with concealment but you can also bark one .41 mag out of a 4 1/2 barrel and stop a threat instantly. I dress around a 9mm with the proper rounds but I wouldnt mind a .41
Had an original anaconda and hate I ever traded it. Grips weren't great but, very hand filling. Never was great with magnums but, had some pretty hot hand loads that my dad loaded .Not Elmer Keith hot but, substantial and controllable. Feeling nostalgic now. Thanks for bringing back great memories. Love the channel.
Thanks for sharing! I got my Anaconda for the base MSRP if you can believe it... just lucky I guess. I also called Silencer Central and made a purchase for my plinking pistol and told them you sent me! Thanks for all of your vids, your opinion means a lot.
For me that is the most beautiful revolver
Love it! I think you definitely need one! No doubt Hickok44 would've also been a great name for your taste in firearms! Happy to see another beautiful Colt too!
Amazing that you can actually see the round flying through the air before it hits the gong.

@AC\DC The Super Alaskan Redhawk is pretty sexy (at least it is in the 2.5" barrel).
I’ve been waiting for this for years!!!
I bought an original Anaconda back in the day. Looked pretty but went out of time firing heavy hand loads. Sent back to Colt. Timing locked up again. Sent it back. When it returned, I Immediately sold it for a 629 Classic DX. S&W is more accurate and never malfunctions with hot ammunition.
I'd love to see a Freedom arms 454. One of my bucket list revolvers.
