When can we expect the 5 inch to be available in Royal Blue finish?

Hi Darryl and welcome. Colt currently is releasing 4.25 and 6 inch in blue. (Colt may follow with the 5 inch later). https://www.gunsandammo.com/editorial/snake-guns-at-shot-show-new-colt-blued-pythons/490058#:~:text=New%20for%202024%2C%20Colt%20is,357%20Mag.&text=Now%2C%20that%27s%20a%20snake%20of,for%20the%20iconic%20six%2Dround%20.

Won't be long now!!! My wife had a beautiful Blued Colt Python .357 waaay back but we don't like to talk about not having it any longer, lol.

What is empty weight of this revolver?

Hi LH, the empty weight is 2.706 lbs (or 42 ounces) Stay safe & have a great day!

43.3 oZ see****** Switching between double and single action, the Python provides versatility in its firing mechanism. The double action trigger pull is measured between 7-9.5 lbs, offering a consistent and manageable pull. Adorning the grip frame are the walnut target stocks, providing not only a striking visual contrast but also ensuring a firm and comfortable grip. Despite its robust build and features, the revolver maintains a manageable ******weight of 43.3 oz when unloaded. Specifications and Features: Caliber: 357 Mag Capacity: 6 Rounds Frame Material: Stainless Steel Finish: Semi-Bright Barrel Technical: 1:14 LH, 6 Groove Barrel Length: 5" (127 mm) Overall Length: 10.5" (266.7 mm)

Hi LH and welcome. Unloaded weight is 42 oz's and fully loaded with 6rds of 125gr self defense ammo approximately 44.8 oz's. Cheers and stay safe!

Is this really a high polished stainless? None of the other Pythons are advertised that way. Thanks.

Hi Garry and welcome. It is not. It is just regular Stainless-Steel Finish and the listing has been corrected. Cheers and stay safe!

It's so polished you'll need sunglasses on every time you handle it!!!!

Garry, this is an error in the listing. Stay safe & have a great day!

Harold, the model and upc number are for a Python with a 5" barrel. Stay safe & have a great day!

Harold, this model has a 5 inch barrel. Not 6 inch. Hope this helps.

Hi HAROLD and welcome. Always trust the manufacturer's UPC code. This upc is the 5 inch although Buds has the 6 inch picture. Cheers and stay safe!

Absolutely stunning firearm! The pictures don’t do it justice. The 5” barrel give the gun a great balance, and the smoothest double action trigger I’ve ever felt. This is not only fun at the range, but an heirloom that will be passed down.

Well, everyone has heard about this revolver, and I have admired the pistol for years. When colt had a rebate, in combo with Buds great pricing, I took the plunge. Extremely well built with close tolerances, and the weight minimizes kick back. She is heavy, but my collection needed a beauty to round things out. Probably should have gone with a 4" or even the std 6" versions as there are more holsters available, but no regrets thus far.

The Colt Python is a well made revolver that seems pricey until you get one in your hands. It is around $400 to $600 more than other competing revolver models but it looks and feels like high quality, and when you take it to the range, the performance confirms it. Put this one to the test with 500+ rounds in two sessions and no issues, tight groupings at 25 yards. You get what you pay for from the finish, action, style and accuracy. Prefer the 5 in. Python’s balance visually and physically over the 3 in., 4.24 in. or 6 in. IMO, the 2020 Pythons revolvers are value priced considering what you get for the money. Also, there is an ease of doing business with Bud’s from browsing to purchase (fair pricing and fast transaction) to shipping to receiving a factory new unblemished product. Overall good experience.

Was easy to order from Buds and great communication. They're price was great and will do business again.

Much nicer gun than the 4” I bought. Smoother action and metal fit and finish is way better. The rear sight is a vast improvement over the first one. It’s nice and tight and actually holds zero unlike the 4” gun that I replaced it with a Wilson Combat rear

Bought mine a few months ago and already had to send it back to Colt. Cylinder and hammer lock up during regular shooting. I do not recommend this revolver.

Richard H on 11/09/2024

I am an unabashed revolver fan. I have never shot a revolver that is as smooth and crisp as this Python. The 5 inch barrel is perfect for me. Very, very accurate gun. I just wish the 5 inch was available in blued.
