Hi, I just purchased a Colt Anaconda, .44 magnum caliber. I'm not familiar with the gun, can you explain how to load and operate it?

Hi there.  Thanks for asking about this gun. The Colt Anaconda is a revolver, so you load it by placing cartridges (bullets) in the cylinder.  It’s very easy to load and unload, so once you get the hang of it you’ll be able to do it with one hand.

Okay, do I really need to remove the cylinder? In any event, how do I get it out of the gun? I see some kind of latch on the left side of the gun, near the cylinder.

In order to load the cylinder, you do need to remove the cylinder.  It’s really easy to do.   If you see a latch near the cylinder, you can probably press that and pull the cylinder out.

Okay, I pressed it and the cylinder swung out of the frame, it's still attached to the gun though. What now?
