I think it looks great, and welcome to the forum!
Ive occasionally toyed with the idea of doing one of these conversions to my early Trooper (not a fan of the 4" factory barrel). Diamondback barrels work too.
Now THAT is a sexy gun... wow
Those conversions are based on the original I-frame Trooper, not the MK3.It just looks "odd" to me,,,
Basically they took one of the prettiest Colts (The Trooper Mk-III) and Bubba'd it.
Does it shoot any better with the Python barrel?

I recently saw one of these I believe it was on GB. Is that it? Good luck and enjoy your unique revolver!Just picked this bad boy up today, and man is it sexy. Some may say that the divide between barrel and frame is ugly, but I can't help but admire the entire look. If anyone can provide anymore history on these types of hybrids, I'd appreciate it.
Nope! Not from GB, I have yet to buy anything from GB, too afraid of getting stupid high prices.I recently saw one of these I believe it was on GB. Is that it? Good luck and enjoy your unique revolver!
That's a great way to get rid of the Ruger billboard.
You can call it a Trython!I think I love the look, definitely a head turner. IMO, the regular trooper barrel doesn't do the power of 357 justice in terms of looks/actual power.
I have a Colt Python but have always liked the Colt Troopers almost as much.
the I-framed models were sorely lacking in grace

Although arguably more durable, the I-framed models were sorely lacking in grace-
