The trigger on my example is EXQUISITE. That attribute has already endeared me to this revolver.
On Tuesdays I have "brunch" with 2-5 of my old partners from work. I large subject of discussion yesterday was the approval by Kalifornistan of the Colt D/A revolvers, especially the new-series Python. 2 of them were all in a lather to get one ordered, and when the matter got hashed out--these two guys have never previously owned a full-sized/field-grade wheelgun. J-frames? Sure--as back-up/off-duty arms. But these two joined the shop after bottom-feeders were already A Fact Of Life, and relics like me from Revolver Only Times were like museum docents. OK, Grasshoppers--class has started.
We started the Gunshop Crawl at my house, and I got out a comparative pair of full-size wheelguns for them to fondle--686 x 4" and 586 x 6". Both have better-than-average triggers, and the two guys liked the actions. "A lot different than my Model 60." Yessir.
"That $1700 you'll lay out for that Python would just about buy you both of those S&Ws in most shops. Now--try THIS trigger." I handed them the PC 625. Both guys got HUGE smiles. "Yeah, that one was about $1100 all-in. I would keep that impression in mind once those Pythons get out among customers. Just sayin'."
The gunshop crawl went poorly, the local shop was closed for the SHOT Show. Oh well. Both men are smart, capable cops that were a privilege to share a career field with. But field/uniform revolvers were Terra Incognita to these guys, who were 8-10 years younger than me. In itself, the realization that guys this age were now also retirees made me feel like Methuselah.
