(5 out of 5) FINALLY!!!
by Chris from Central Florida, FL on September 15, 2023

After years of waiting, Colt has reintroduced the iconic 2.5 Python!!! Crisp action, perfect balance... I prefer this over the 3. Looks and feels better to me. Action so crisp & smooth, it's like butter. Wood service grips are gorgeous, and feel nice in the hand. Amazing job, Colt! Well done!!! Wanting a 2.5 Python since the early 90s, I just bought a brace of these beautiful little 2.5 Pythons, one for CCW, and one as a safe queen! One is great, two is even better! To Colt executives`;` the only thing that would be an improvement on this would be the 2.5 in that vintage Colt Royal BLUE!!! Other than that, what is not to love This revolver is perfect! THANK YOU COLT!!!
