Why this Python is notable for shooters and collectors

Manufactured in 1978, this COLT PYTHON retains original Colt bluing — an important factor for collectors and those who value factory finishes. The 6″ barrel provides a longer sight radius that improves accuracy for target work and range practice. The walnut grips with the Colt medallion preserve period-correct appearance while offering a comfortable purchase for controlled follow-up shots. The double/single action trigger system delivers smooth DA pulls and crisp SA breaks when using the six-shot capacity.

Practical use and handling

For precision target shooting and confident range sessions, the 6″ Python balances weight and pointability. The original bluing not only enhances appearance but also indicates careful preservation. Its six-shot cylinder gives reliable follow-up capability without excess bulk, and the walnut grips aid in consistent hand placement for repeatable accuracy.
