  • This is the current production Colt Python .357 magnum in polished blue. Colt introduced this revolver at the 2024 Shot Show which had nearly everyone talking. However, there are many changes to this version that don't match its predecessor. It wasn't meant to. It is however, more affordable that a vintage example.

    Man! I love those grips! I thought it was an older Python when I first started watching. I just recently bought a 2021 Anaconda. I replaced the Hogue rubber grip with Altamont super walnut Python grips. I like yours a whole lot more. I'm going to rewatch your video to hear who the manufacturer is. I'll definitely get some if they are available and reasonably priced. Your Python looks absolutely perfect.

    **Update** 05/04/2024
    I took the Python out to the range last Wednesday and shot four boxes of .357 158gr SJHP ammo. I also took my S&W 586 No Dash. The Python was hard to control with the EOM thin grips. They were replaced with the Deer Hollow. While a little thicker than the OEM I don't believe they are as thick as the EOM grips of the original Pythons of the 50s through the 90s. I had to readjust my grip after each shot which is not good for a defensive situation. When I shot the same ammo in my 586 the larger target grips and trigger made it easier to control the recoil.
    I'll see about grips of the original Python or start using shooting gloves. Additionally, the narrow trigger with the deep serrations is rough on the fingers when shooting heavy magnum loads.
    I bought the Python to shoot .357 ammo and I don't want to switch to standard .38spl or even +P or +P+ ammo in an effort to do what thicker grips would do

    Rear sight sucks, Front sight is OK at best, but adding 3 ventilated ribs instead of the traditional 2 is weird. Sadly I'm still a fan.

      Idk...I owned a Colt Cobra classic (new model), while dry firing with snap caps, the internal part of the hammer snapped and locked the cylinder up...I sent it to be fixed and sold it when I got it back. Can't trust a weapon that will break...but I will say these new pythons are very interesting.

    I just got my 4" blued Python. I really like those grips which are on backorder BTW they don't seem to make a narrower grip with a undercut under the trigger as my palms a a good size however my fingers aren't long. So ill see what Tyler grips has to offer or ill have him custom make me a pair.

      I am the proud owner of a 1990s original Python 4 inch in the DEEP Colt royal blue. I have the box and original grips and I put on a Hogue rosewood unigrip. Feels superb in my hands although I very rarely fire it - for obvious reasons.

    It has the worst trigger of any revolver I've ever bought and I've bought a bunch of them. I doesn't compare in any way shape or form to the Pythons of the 70's as was mentioned. The problem is that this one that I got was horrible.
    I fired 6 shots of .38 Special out of mine and they were all over the place. Shot the center X out of a target at 25 yards with a 686 no dash so it wasn't me.
    I really think the rifling was not done correctly.
    In any case my local dealer took it back less $100.00 and I'm happy.
