Considered the “Rolls-Royce of Colt Revolvers”, the Colt Python has a reputation for accuracy, smooth trigger pull, and a tight cylinder lock-up. Built on Colt’s large I-frame, the Python is a double action handgun chambered for .357 Magnum cartridge and features a full barrel underlug, ventilated rib and adjustable sights. Originally designed as a target revolver, the Python became a popular carry among uniformed and plainclothes officers. All Pythons have Impeccable finish and mechanics, hand finished and tuned to legendary precision. This circa 1988 manufactured gun, serial number T73635 wears 99% factory Royal Blue finish with barely a handling mark anywhere on the gun, it has some light handling at the muzzle and a faint turn line. The bore has a mirror finish. Cocking the hammer on this revolver is the most satisfying combination of sound and mechanical perfection. This Python is fitted with Colts third style target grips with perfect checkering, a second set of Hogue grips are included. This Python has been very well cared for. On its introduction in 1955, the Python was one of the most imposing and expensive models offered by Colt. It represented Colt’s proposal to produce a deluxe high-powered revolver in which the highest forms of mechanical and design perfection were embodied. History has shown that Colt’s aspirations have proven correct. With prices of Pythons continuing to climb, getting a foot on the ladder sooner than later is the way to go. There are diminishing chances to own a Vintage Python so strike fast or this snake will be gone! Thanks for looking!
