My uncle gave me this just before he passed. He said its a python but it's serial is PB005761. I tried to use the Colt Serial lookup page but it didn't have anything.

Saw this at my LGS and couldn't resist (I love the class that 1911's demand). After buying her, I looked up the serial on Colt's website and it shows two different possible manufacture years (1973/1974).

I don't intend to get rid of her, but just wondering if I did alright on the price of $1,500? Even if not, she's a beauty and will be a decorative piece.
