Pistol-Whipping...

[Dr.Rob]

There is a reason Fitz Colts had lead in the butt.

But on a bad note I had a Denver cop tell me a war story of bending the barrel on a Colt Python during an arrest.

(My guess is he bent it at the threads)

I'd hate to ruin a Python that way.

you could mar the finish

I believe that is rule #4 in safe gun handling.
