In 1953 Colt introduced the "357 Revolver", it's model designation reflected the caliber it was chambered in, .357 Magnum. This was a first for Colt at the time, with the large frame New Service model discontinued during the war, Colt didn't have any double action revolver in it's line that could be chambered for the powerful new Magnum round.
Colt decided to develop a new revolver specifically for the Magnum round and they shook up the gun world of revolvers with what they developed.
The new medium frame revolver was built on a modified and strengthened Colt medium frame. Colt had used this basic medium frame since the Army Special of 1908. For use with the Magnum round, Colt changed the medium "E" frame with it's hammer mounted firing pin to a new design with a spring loaded firing pin mounted inside the frame. To withstand the much higher pressures of the .357, Colt gave the frame and cylinder of the new gun special heat treating to increase it's strength.
This new frame design was named the "I" frame.
This 357 was produced until 1961 until Colt discontinued it after about 15,000 had been produced. The Colt Trooper and new Python series took it's place on the market.
