Colt came to SHOT Show in Las Vegas last week with a list of returning crowd favorites for the new year. 

The large MM-framed Anaconda, traditionally in either .44 Magnum/Special or .45 Colt, first debuted in 1990 with a beefy full-lug frame. Discontinued in 2003, Colt brought back the Anaconda in 2021 after a nearly two-decade hiatus, but it was only available in an all-stainless format with rubber grips. 

That has changed this year with the introduction of a blued variant using forged carbon steel frames in 4.25-inch, 6-inch, and 8-inch barrel lengths, all standard with target walnut grips complete with gold Colt medallions. 

M4 and M5 Pistols

Also new for 2026 are two new versions of Colt's M4 and M5 large-format 5.56 NATO AR pistols, each with 11.5-inch rails, free-floating handguards with M-LOK slots in seven positions, and A2 flash hiders. The big difference between the two is that the M5 ships with a fully-ambi lower (bolt release, magazine release, and safety selector along with a better Radian Raptor charging handle, while the M4 only has an ambi safety selector. 
 

The MSRP on the new M4 pistol is $1,450, while the M5 hits $1,999. 

Colt also had its MK 47 40mm grenade machine gun on display in both emplaced and drone-carried versions, the latter held aloft on a Survice TRV-150c drone.
