Back when brand spanking new Pythons were still on the shelves at gunshops, I had a choice between buying a Python or saving a few bucks and buying a Ruger Security Six.

I went the cheap route...and it was pretty soon after that when the Pythons disappeared off the shelves. And I sold the Security Six not long after I bought it.

Been kicking myself ever since...

My first handgun was a Python. May Dad gave it to me for my 21st Birthday.
