When we last reviewed the C​olt Python, we primarily showed its longer-barreled variant. This weekwe're taking a closer look at its smaller sibling. Chambered in the tried-and-true .357 Magnum, this revolver is a solid performer in the deer woods. With a more manageable 4.25-inch barrelthis Python is as at home in the woods as it is riding on your hip. For more on this classic wheelgun, check out the video embedded above, hosted by Editor in Chief Scott Olmsted and Digital Associate Editor David Herman. MSRP: $1,499.00
