Beautiful revolver! If Safety information is on that bar code thing. I Could see why it was put at that location. I hate all things computer but the code thing to me is a big nothing. I don't even see it. Colt has done a Wonderful job re-releasing the Python. Outstanding! The new snake guns are a Win Win for company and consumer alike. Best Wishes from Montana! M.H.
"I know what you're thinking: 'Did he fire six shots or only five?' Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I've kinda lost track myself. But being this is a Colt Python .357 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and it could blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do you, punk?"
Excellent camera-work, showing off this beauty. The blued version is like crack c-caine for us boomers, especially someone like me who had one back in the early seventies and foolishly sold it. I have this new one ordered and can’t wait to have it in my hand.
Unfortunately, the chemicals Colt used in the past were toxic, and there is nowhere that they can use them anymore. The new process is as close as they could get, but they did say that the finish will stay on better. I have an old Colt Trooper that had the beautiful, blued finish, but it wore off fast. Can't wait for my new python to come in.
I'm surprised with that high polish bluing. I didn't think any manufacturers did that anymore. Looks gorgeous! I have an old Remington rifle from the '70's that is polished but haven't seen bluing like that since. Always loved the snake guns but couldn't afford them. Went the 686 route. Totally love it in polished stainless.
They have been coming out with some amazing firearms the last 5 years. We are living in the best times for guns and ofcoarse the government trying to strip that right away from us.
Beautiful ! Question have you noticed that the new model blue 4 inch has 3 slots vent rib vs. the original 4 inch having only 2 slots. The new model stainless steel has only 2 slots vent rib. Why ? My 1996 4 inch stainless has only 2 slots vent rib.
Yes and that made me second guess about getting that one, now that's the type of mistakes I will say Colt messed up. To me that's a screw up and they should have kept tradition, that I say is a legit complaint worthy of speaking out about.
Yes, Colt screwed up totally with their "new" Python. They did a good job with resurrection of their SAA revolvers though, but these Pythons are a complete fiasco.
1. That blue finish is NOT like that vintage Royal Blue. The Royal Blue is nicer. 2. This new trigger has an ugly shape. The vintage one was more graceful with that roundness of contours and that little upper gap. 3. This new hammer has an uglier shape as well. Its tail is short. The vintage hammer was more graceful with that longer tail. Also the new hammer is black. The vintage one was silver on the sides. Beautiful. 4. Cylinder stop grooves are longer with the new one. The vintage one had them shorter which looked much nicer. 5. The markings are ugly on the new one. That exposed serial number and that QR-code :) is just a shame! The vintage one had the serial number hidden. 6. The crowning of the barrel looks ugly. 7. Grips are ugly on the new one. Nothing is more beautiful than those vintage factory Colt grips of gen2 and gen3.
Idk for me I love the new Anoconda but not so much the pythons 🐍 I take a old blue smith any day over these colts , and the 4 inch blued models with the 3 ribs is butt ugly , Grips are so Bland
How can anyone complain about the bluing... the finish is like glass !!!!
Finally someone showing it without oil all over it lol. Beautiful
Yes! Thank you!
Certainly one of the most beautiful handguns of all time. SO glad they brought it back in a blued finish. Just spectacular.
Very nice!!!!! Wayy better blueing than the competitor's from what iv seen lately.
The finish is amazing! I also have the 6” blued. Colt did a great job
That's what I like to hear more people get to own this revolver now!!!
Absolutely gorgeous Revolver 😍
Want one. Absolutely beautiful.

That is a beautiful revolver. Now Colt should go back too the 2 ribbed barrel for the 4 inch Python.
Yes
Very nice. I already have one in stainless. Now, I am tempted to get a blue one.
Absolutely
Awesome my friend!! Thanks for the Video…. On With The Show!! I Love Being #1.
Beretta SR.
Thanks guys!!!
That's a beauty right there!!!
Great camera work. Gonna make a “safe adjustment “ to fund one of these.

Work of art.
Great close up video. Thanks buddie.
Man J.W that Colt is awesome and the grips are very nice! Thanks for the video, Slim.

Outstanding!!
Very nice..beautiful bluing..I got the same from 72..😎
Looking good BatJac 😊
Bluing is better on the newest model than the old . Most definitely better
Great to finally see some close ups with good lighting.
These new pythons are beautiful! Made better and they stay in time much better. Devaluing the older ones by the day.
Words of truth right here!! And I love it when I hear people going out and picking up pythons as a regular stock item.

Great video, man that’s a beauty!! Good job Colt!
Good job! Thank you.
Beautiful.
Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful! 👍🏽😀❤️🇺🇸
Thanks for watching
Badass colt python 357 magnum revolver
Very nice!!
Yep got one ordered through my gun shop . Gotta have the 6 inch to replace the 80's model i sold for $3600.
It’s a beauty.
Now haters don't be angry that your python is no longer worth 4g's.
with all the complaints about this one( i bought 2 of em) the OG is still worth it.
Correct. Better made and they stay in time at half the cost.
WOW, just wow!
Awesome 🤩
Badass revolver

It's not royal blue. But it does looks excellent.
It's a good looking python, the flats are really polished well before the blueing was done.
Oh yeah! That's pretty 👍👍
I really want a blued model. I got a ss all decked out with optic and light.
I really don't know the exact distinction, but Colt do not call this Royal Blue.
I did a video on my 4.25" version and concur with your video. Actually your video is much better than mine so keep them coming.
I did see your video and liked your grip choice, good shots of the 4 in model.
Mine is stainless with pearl handles i am leonard
Yeah that's pretty.
Swapped out my Grips and the sights dont have the medallion. I do have my "grooves" now to get it on paper.
Wwhat shine can you use?
yes!
What company made the grips you showed later in the video?
Those are Deer Hollow grips. They're exact reproductions of the old Python grips.
The top barrels on the new ones are bulkier
Real close
Where did you get those grips you showed for a few seconds?
ebay

Is that the one Hunter said he threw away ?
worthwhile looking'
What a absolute beautiful gun, .... but i cringe every time you lay it down on that hard surface!
NICE $1.600 and all $OLD OUT
QR code is a freaking nightmare , it’s almost as bad as Smiths key lock 🔐
Not really. It doesn't affect the function of the gun.
A code? WTF

Dude shut up. These are very nice I have the stainless and it is amazing. Very accurate and pretty. Nothing wrong with these at all.
@@justusbryant7366He's just upset that it's going to lower the resale value of that original python he just paid $5000 for.😊
Take it easy KEN!!!!
