Interesting. We just watched a "Gun Stories"/Joe Montegna episode last night on TV about the Colt snake guns. Quite interesting. Personally I never got into them. Pretty much just because they always seemed to be to rich for my blood. I do have a great deal of respect for Colt. And I don't know that the Colt's were any better than S&W? I've got several nice Smith and Wesson pistols that satisfy MY revolver desires.

Don't think they re made the Diamondback yet. I've got a Python with the 4.25" barrel and the Anaconda with the 6" barrel. Been great so far.

$1000 price point, much like a Kimber K6 series. Definitely not a cheap wheel gun.

They let their trademark expire, so they will never make another "Diamondback". But the Diamondback replacement is available, now known as the King Cobra Target .22 lr. A stainless double action 10 shot rimfire.

Never have I seen a good, cheap revolver. Compared to current prices, this one's pretty much in line.

Truer words never spoken.

I saw one at my LGS the day they were released. Nifty little gun but too shiny for my liking. It didn't last but a couple days before someone took it home

I mean . . . I WANT to like it, but my expectations are very low and I still think that Colt will find a way to disappoint me
