While the Python ticks *ALL* the nostalgia boxes, and was at the top of the bucket list at one time many years ago, I think I would actually buy that other classic that was recently brought out of mothballs - a Dan Wesson revolver. From everything I read it is a stronger and more durable gun.

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.
