the worst thing about the python is that every barrel length looks so good, its hard to choose

Dude, literally. Proportionally, I generally like 3 or 4 inch revolvers because the grip and barrel look pretty symmetrical, but these things look perfect from 3 inches to 6. I thought I would like the 4+ inch models for the extra vents, but the 3 inch looks so damn good 😅

My very first revolver was a Colt Python, back in 1981. I was foolish enough to let it get away. Your Python is beautiful. Dont make the same mistake I did. Keep it forever.

This made a big difference in accuracy Smith and wesson 586-8 4" this is my safe queen believe it or not Smith and wesson 586 L comp got this for wifey/me Smith and 686-6 4" this was my first revolver Smith and wesson 686 deluxe 3" bought altamont altai grips for it

Se le ve algo duro el percutor o el gatillo, podria ser que esté nuevo y con el tiempo el acero cedera

I mean no disrespect but your trigger technique could be the problem with the smoothness. I noticed you kinda hook it deep thru the trigger while i personally put the tip of my finger on the trigger and slowly squeeze inward. It could be very possible that its just not as smooth but every new python and anaconda i felt was absurdly smooth and felt great
@ExplorersWorkbench10 ай бұрын
I wish that were so. That technique is just because I’ve got it on the table and filming. It’s smoothing out slightly. But it doesn’t feel great.
