Description
The Colt Python is revered as one of the finest double-action revolvers ever made, and this 1969 example showcases the legendary craftsmanship that made Colt an icon. Featuring a 6-inch vent rib barrel, deep blue finish, and original checkered walnut grips, this Python is a true representation of mid-century American quality. Known for its buttery-smooth action, hand-fitted parts, and distinctive vented rib, the Python stands apart as both a shooter’s and collector’s dream.
This particular Python is rated “very fine,” retaining 95%+ of its original finish with minimal handling marks and only minor cylinder wear—common for guns of this vintage. The grips show moderate, honest wear with crisp checkering and only minor chipping, all adding character to a revolver that’s been treasured for over half a century. Mechanically, it locks up tight and cycles flawlessly, ready for the range or the showcase.
Perfect for the discerning collector, the Python .357 is equally suited for serious shooters who appreciate fine triggers, classic styling, and unrivaled reputation. Whether you’re upgrading your collection or searching for an investment-grade revolver, this piece is an exceptional choice.
