If you want to know if something is a good investment look at what the younger generation is buying.....
I think you got your dates or models mixed up. Colt Anacondas were not around in 1985.A muzzle loading gun made by a well noted custom maker will hold its value and will be worth more to someone who knows their value. Same is true with modern guns - Colt for example. Any Colt is worth more now than a few years ago. I was offered a lightly used Colt Anaconda for $200 back in 1985 - I passed because it was something I did not want or need. I also passed on a as new used 4" Colt Diamondback at $190 in 1986 - check the prices of any snake gun now a days. I still regret not buying these two revolvers to this day.
I have a few new in box guns that I will pass on to my son and let him decide what he wants to do with them. For now, I like the thought of having them in my collection and admire them from time to time. Same with my knife collection both folding and fix bladed ones. One does not collect for the thought of selling for a profit but for the enjoyment. .
It defiantly was a Colt Anaconda and yes, I could have the date wrong but not the price. My friend had it and needed the money. It was not something I wanted.I think you got your dates or models mixed up. Colt Anacondas were not around in 1985.
