I had one years ago and sold it to fund a Python purchase. I never hear anyone mention the MK5. Any of you folks have one? Pictures?
I really liked that revolver, but wanted a Python worse.

Lots of pictures of the Colts on the web. I carried a Colt Trooper Mark 3 4” .357 back in the early 70’s. Excellent shooting pistol.

I still have my dad's Mk III Trooper 4" he carried as his duty gun. Solid pistol.

Well...you see...everybody knows somebody that has or had a Mk3. But I had a Mk5, which has a ventilated rib, like the Python. Did anybody but me ever have a Mk5? Nobody talks about them.

Just googled up the Mk5, to find that it was only made from 1983 to 1986. Fairly rare. And I sold mine. Dang!
