I agree. If I was Don I'd sell the Python soonest, no worries, no muss, no fuss. The gun is, sorry to say, worth more idle now than in the traces.
Tomorrow is our shoot the guns day...in the morning we get out every firearm we own, neighbors, friends, family, and toss lead or shot at something.
I, of course, shoot some firearms more than others, nature of the beast. With my son away at college I shoot less than I did previously. I also have some of my fathers old weapons and, while I revere them, they still can be safely fired, so we do.
It is so interesting taking an old gun out of the case, remembering days fifty years ago when I hunted that gun with my father, when the Grouse hit between loads, the look on his face.
