Description

The Colt Python is widely regarded as one of the finest revolvers ever made, renowned for its precision, smooth action, and stunning high-polish blue finish. This 1968-produced example showcases the craftsmanship that made the Python legendary. Built on Colt’s “I” frame, it features a full underlug, ventilated rib, and a 6" barrel—offering excellent balance for both target shooting and collection display.

The revolver retains its original Blue finish, which still displays a deep, lustrous sheen. The checkered rubber grips with Colt medallions provide a comfortable and secure hold. Chambered in .357 Magnum, the Python is equally capable with .38 Special for lighter recoil shooting. The action is smooth and precise, with the tight lock-up and crisp trigger pull that Python enthusiasts prize.

A must-have for serious Colt collectors, this 1968 Python combines rarity, exceptional build quality, and timeless appeal.
