Design and key features
The Python platform returns here with modern materials: stainless steel construction, a recessed target crown and a redesigned rear sight that places roughly 30% more steel beneath the adjustable target sight for greater strength and repeatable alignment. The 3″ barrel balances compact carry-friendly dimensions with accuracy potential for defensive use and range work. Sights include a blade front and adjustable rear, plus a user-interchangeable front sight for personalization.
Finish, grips, and engraving
This limited run carries a custom Sapphire finish by Seattle Engraving atop Colt’s stainless substrate, paired with walnut target grips featuring the classic Colt medallion. The finish and engraving elevate the Python to a collectible while keeping it fully serviceable as a shooter.
Caliber and performance
Chambered in .357 Magnum and compatible with .38 Special, this model covers both hot defensive loads and softer practice rounds. The .357 Magnum delivers proven stopping power and versatility; using .38 Special for practice reduces recoil and wear while maintaining excellent reliability.
Price for this numbered release is listed at $3,000.99 — reflective of the limited run, custom finish, and premium fit and finish. View product details and pricing
