    Just sold my S&W 686 and now my small penis is lusting after a BIG GUN to stroke my ego. I had a circa 1985 Python that had an absolutely slick trigger, best Ive experienced. wondering if the Anaconda trigger is comparable. Any one have direct experience?
     
    I had a 4" Colt Anaconda in .45 Colt - it was a great gun and accurate - but the trigger was not as smooth or light as a Python.
    But, still a great gun. Very nicely put together.
     
    hard to beat a python for just about anything. But also any of the snake guns are better than say a trooper.
     
    I have officers model match in 38 spl and 22. Also a few Pythons and one Anaconda.
    Toss up on the trigger in the OMM and the Python. The Anaconda was less pleasing, but mine was after the first edition.
    A friend had a first edition that the trigger was as good as my OMM's. Wanted to buy it from his estate but 4 grand was more than I
    could justify. I'm sure the Anaconda trigger could be relatively easy to bring it to a P or OMM trigger.
