Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
In the history of modern double-action American handguns, the Colt Python revolver stands above all others. It was born in the mid-1950s in a post-war era in which quality was already starting to fall from the heights that American gun-making had attained in the 1930s and 40s. Going against the grain of fast, mass-production firearms made of stamped and fabricated parts and "Space Age" plastics and aluminum, the Python was intended to be the finest revolver ever made in America, and it met that goal.
The Python barrel was so "right" in feel and appearance, virtually every revolver designed since has a barrel that looks as much like the Python barrel as the makers dare. A major selling point of the Python, right from the original concept as a target revolver, was that the Python was the most accurate double-action revolver ever made. In fact, the Python met the hype with few revolvers able to match it for pure accuracy. There are a number of reasons for the Python's deserved reputation.
