"I Can't Believe I Found This Gun"

[The Legion]

Yesterday I was checking out the Facebook page of one of our local gun ranges here in Memphis (Top Gun) and noticed they just received this New Colt Python in.  I couldn't believe it was still available when I went over to the range this afternoon.  I could not help myself I had to have it.  It was between this beautiful Colt Python and Links2K Henry .357 Magnum Rifle.  I am sorry Links2k, but the Colt won.  I cannot wait to get to the range shoot this beautiful handgun.

I can't believe you found something at Top Gun that wasn't ridiculously overpriced!   Good find!

[The Legion]

It was priced the same as Kentucky Gun Company is showing they sell it for.  The only other place the shows selling this gun at a low price is Oakhillguns.  They may raise the price when they get one available.

Nice going. And since I have bought some of your toys when you grow tired of them. I'll be over here waiting.

Looking forward to a range report. Particularly interested as to if they've worked the bugs out reported in earlier guns. 

This is the first one I've heard of for sale in quite a while. The 2020 Python more or less just disappeared after the initial batch showed some problems.

@The Legion What do you mean by "new"? The new Pythons are stainless steel, no?

Maybe it's just the lighting in the photo that makes it looked blued.   Either that, or Legion is jerking us around on purpose and did some Photoshop work.    I checked again on Colt's site and they are still just showing SS.

They are stainless.  This is an example of one.

Looks like high luster blue on an iPhone.

Looks that way on a Samsung S9 too.

It is Stainless!  But you are correct it does look blued.

Those are beautiful wheel guns. Saw the one on the cover of American Rifleman and mentally added it to my "wish list" so to speak.

That's the bluest stainless I have ever seen-I like it-nice find.

[nightrunner]

Yup, looks blue to me.

Maybe the box rubbed off on it.

Congratulations!

I've always wanted a Python, too.  I'll just have to settle with the Trooper

So Legion, did you ever shoot this thing? Inquiring minds want a range report.

Yes I have been out to the range.  Just have not gotten around talking about it.  I can say this revolver has the best trigger I have ever shot on a so called stock revolver.  You have to pay a lot of money to get a trigger as good as this gun has.  I shot both .357 Magnum and .38 Specials out of the gun.  The .38's were like shooting 22's and the .357 Magnum's shot very well also.
