Step right up — here’s a chance to own one of the most iconic revolvers ever made: a Colt Python .357 Magnum, 4-inch, gorgeous blued finish, classic wood grips — and produced right around the golden era, c. 1979. This is more than a gun — it’s a piece of American firearms heritage.

• Collector appeal & performance: The Python is widely regarded as one of the finest factory revolvers ever produced, with incredible mechanical fit, smooth trigger action, and rock-solid lockup.
• Ready to shoot & enjoy: Despite the gentle holster wear around the edges (which only attests to its “lived-in” story), the rest of this gun is in superb, honest shape — clean, sharp, and ready for the range or safe display.
• Balance of rarity & usability: A late-’70s Python is collectible but not yet prohibitively rare — you get a functional masterpiece that also holds value.
• Original charm: The classic wood grips, bright polished bluing, adjustable target sights — it’s everything you’d want in a vintage Python, with character but not abuse.

Whether you’re a shooter looking for a premium revolver that still delivers, or a collector hunting a standout piece, this Colt Python checks all the boxes.
