SKU: REV-002A replica of the Python, the .357 Magnum double-action revolver introduced by the American firm Colt in 1955 and aimed at the luxury revolver market. Often nicknamed "the Rolls-Royce of revolvers," it was renowned for its accuracy, smooth trigger pull, and solid construction, and has been described by leading authors and collectors as one of the finest revolvers ever made.
