Fnfalman Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 https://www.colt.com/detail-page/colt-python-425 It looks good. I’m excited to check it out myself and see if it’s truly worthy of the name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrB Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Interesting, I will check this out also. Now if Ruger would reintroduce the Speed-Six and Security Six and Smith would dump the lock. I love revolvers.. Dave.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueiron Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 That was something I didn't see coming. I'm glad they brought the ol' gal back, but I was somewhat saddened to see that a blued finish isn't available and that the barrel options are only 4.25 and 6 inch options. I want a 4 inch option to fit an old holster I have. Still, I'll buy at least one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldSchool64 Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 It's hard to beat the original when the (original) manufacture is no longer the same. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fnfalman Posted January 1, 2020 Author Share Posted January 1, 2020 Apparently you can make a new gun better than the old one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are luxury items same as food, they can wait.. Firearms are a necessity, one of life's essentials. You can hunt for food with the revolver, thus it serves it's purpose. Things have to be put in the proper perspective here. Logic and Rationality have no place in a gun forum. Dave..

If i don't have a truck to take me to the field...then the Python will remain a non-hunter. If i don't replace my roof...my wife will use the Python on me. laugh. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have them add the price of the Python to the roof quote under some obscure line, she will never know. You are overthinking things here. Remember this is a gun forum....

norton Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Looking forward to your review FNFalman. I am stoked. It might cost me a couple of my other handguns, but I would love to have one of the 4" models at some point. Probably will wait until the initial excitement dies down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrB Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 I saw a teaser photo of the blued one. If it in fact and the blueing is polished and Colt blue I think I will wait around. I hope it is fact. Dave.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My local Colt shop only has one Python slated for them and the owner already claimed it. but yes, I have a feeling that 2020 will be another Colt year for me: Gold Cup Trophy and Custom Competition both in .38 Super, and any Pythons I can get my hands on. Preferably both the long and short barrels SS. Then maybe a blued model or two if Colt were to release it. Hopefully Talo would have Colt does a snubbie or something funky. im gonna hoard these snakes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueiron Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Colt will have plenty of customers screaming for them to make a 2 1/2 inch barreled Python and it will sell. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
