Keep in mind the King Cobra is NOT a Python! The Python's are very nice, and I think quality wise more closer to the 586/686. The KC is not. Just an opinion, of course:-)
How have auctions prices been around you guys?
I live around Richmond, IN ... Walther Hawkins probably has a gun auction >50 once every couple weeks. I don't go anymore though. The auctioneer's an idiot ... and prices typically over going well over retail!
Thanks, Neal
