Colt's legendary Python revolver returns in stainless steel with a compact 2.5-inch barrel, 6-round capacity, and walnut target grips. Built for precision and durability with adjustable sights and double/single-action operation.
Colt has brought back one of the most respected revolvers in shooting history. The Python .357 Magnum combines time-tested design with modern manufacturing excellence, delivering a revolver that performs as beautifully as it looks.
Stainless Steel Construction The Python features modern stainless steel alloys throughout the frame and cylinder, providing superior corrosion resistance and durability. Thirty percent more steel is positioned beneath the rear adjustable target sight, creating a stronger, more robust revolver capable of handling full-power .357 Magnum loads.
Compact and Manageable The 2.5-inch barrel strikes the ideal balance between handling and sight radius. This compact length makes the Python exceptionally maneuverable while maintaining the accuracy Colt is known for. The revolver weighs approximately 39 ounces—substantial enough for control, light enough for extended shooting sessions.
The Python is chambered in .357 Magnum but also safely accommodates .38 Special cartridges, giving you flexibility in ammunition selection and shooting applications.
The Python's smooth trigger action works in both double-action (for rapid fire) and single-action (for precision shooting) modes. This versatility makes the revolver suitable for sport shooting, collecting, and personal defense.
With six rounds of .357 Magnum or .38 Special, the Python delivers adequate firepower in a package that remains controllable and reliable.
