(5 out of 5) New Colt Python, stainless, 5-in barrel
by Randy from Lafayette, IN on June 17, 2025

The revolver is not an unwieldy barrel length for ease of carry in a holster, even when sitting in a vehicle, and has a longer sight radius for accurate 50–75 yard shooting. Accuracy with cheap factory .357 and .38 loads has been good, staying in the black at 25 yards from a sandbag and on silhouette at longer distances. The action is smooth out of the box.
