Doesn't matter to me really...I'm shootin'em...

Paraphrasing Harry C: Did my M-629 fire 7 shots or only 6 (NIB)?

I just don't view things like a collector might...don't care about $ that much.

Yep, I'd shoot both Pythons if I had two NIB...just because I can.... then sell one
If pulling the trigger would devalue a spoon by five figures you would think twice about pulling that trigger.
