I recently saw a Colt Python with a barrel stamped .38 Special. I was wondering if there is any difference between the Python .38 Special barrel and the more common versions, stamped .357 Magnum. While I did not have a .357 Mag version to compare the two, the barrel seems identical to the .357 Mag, other than the ".38 Special" marking. Is it? And if so, are the barrels interchangeable between .38 Spec and .357 Magnum Pythons?
(I don't intend to try to shoot .357 Mag ammo in the .38 Special Python)
