THAT’S COOL!

wish the Python would come in .357 Maximum

THAT’S COOL!

wish the Python would come in .357 Maximum

Or at least 360dw

You do realize that would call for a redesign of the receiver. I know you are a good customer but I don't think they will tool up for you.

ETA
Once upon a time there was a fad for cutting two Mauser or other bolt actions into unequal parts. Swap and weld and you got one short action, one Magnum action.

Don't be too upset. I had one, and they are not all that. The 6" is the bomb, the 4" is nice.

If they were as smart as Colt in the 60s, they'd make a one year run of them in 38spl, and never catalog them and pretend they never existed

If you haven’t got a 3 inch you are not just With It.

that marketing SMART!

Would be just as smart to make them in one of the 32 calibers and tease them for months before releasing a batch of about 250 and then start teasing again.

Looks great, but about 5 years too late for my hands.

 

[Walkalong]

The revolver that fit me better than any other was the Colt Diamondback, the Ruger Security Six is next in line. I should have bought a snubby before people got proud of them. Either one.

They've been out for a while. I'm waiting for the 3" to drop......

Yeh maybe you could get the bullet to stick out of the muzzle before you pull the trigger

 

[Targa]

Very cool, I like that they are offering more blued options. I do hope that they blue the Anaconda line before I take a dirt nap. Hurry up Colt, a bunch of us are waiting to buy one!!!

 

[Piedmont Plinker]

Ugh. I just droppped a bunch of cash on a blued 5" GP-100, and I was thinking I'd be able to save some cash for a while.

It looks like they're making every barrel length in blued now. I think I'm in on on a 2.5" or 3". The GP is convincing me that 5" is the perfect barrel length, but I've also always wanted a 4" (okay, 4.25"), like the cops use in A Nightmare on Elm Street.

When I joined this forum back in middle school I never thought I'd see another new double action Colt revolver. Being spoiled for choice now is a glorious problem to have.

Now maybe they'll make a blued Cobra with a normal trigger guard and a 3rd generation Detective Special style barrel...

I was going to say that same. I absolutely love my blue 6" (2024 model)...but one is enough for me. I went into mine, fully aware that the premium I was paying...was because it was a blued Colt Python 6"...but did it make for a premium shooting experience? Not really, it's a really solid shooter...but a 6" 686 would do the same, for FAR less $$.

Or a beautiful blued 6" 586 for that matter.............

To me, the 5” is juuuuust right.



Like a few other posters, the 2” is not one I would personally go for. I have both a 2” and a 3” Dan Wesson VH barrel-shroud for my 15-2’s, and neither one of those are my favorites either. But I’d like to hear what other guys who have them think of them.

Stay safe.

If they reintroduce the Detective Special, and make it available in California, then my accountant is just going to have to deal with the fallout.

Otherwise, I guess I'll be able resist whatever they are offering.

Don't understand the reasoning behind a 2" barreled .357 magnum...

as long as they get rid of that weird bar code on the side. Don’t care what anybody says, it’s not cool, especially if you don’t trust ai tech reading that code and tracking you. (just my thoughts)

Easy carry. My 2 inch guns just carry “better” than 3,4,5 inch guns. Just by a little bit. And you get “more” power. Wether you can control it that’s another story lol
