Political correctness is a national suicide pact.

only to God and my own conscience.
I want one
Love it! I wonder if they'll offer a 4-6 inch barrel.
Warning: I know Judo. If you force me to prove it I'll shoot you.
I hope they offer it with an adjustable rear sight.
3 inch barrel, .357 magnum , fixed sights, what a carry gun should be and seldom seen. Might consider letting my Det. Special .38 Special, 3 inch barrel go for one of those.
They should have just put a barrel on it like the original Colt Python, and then I would be interested in buying one.
Looks like copy of a Smith 686.

Good job Colt! Very glad to see them getting back into wheelguns.
Currently casting and loading: .32 Auto, .380 Auto, .38 Special, 9X19, .357 Magnum, .257 Roberts, 6.5 Creedmoor, .30 WCF, .308 WCF, .45-70.
The more competition in the wheelgun market, the better.
Looks like a new Charter Arms.
You can miss fast & you can miss a lot, but only hits count.

It is encouraging to see Colt trying to stay in the game. I really like the concept--6 shot, 3" barrel, 28-oz package in 357 Magnum. If good quality is there, I will buy one.
I don't paint bullets. I like Black Rifle Coffee. Sacred cows are always fair game. California is to the United States what Syria is to Russia and North Korea is to China/South Korea/Japan--a Hermit Kingdom detached from the real world and led by delusional maniacs, an economic and social basket case sustained by "foreign" aid so as to not lose military bases.
Yep, I am going to take a look at one for my wife(not that I am the least bit interested in it for myself!!). Seriously, I tried to change her over to autos figuring that they might be easier for her to handle but after I bought her one of the striker fired 9mm's, she shot it and said no thank you, I prefer my Smith K frame(the one I bought her for our 40th anniversary 18 years ago.. Bless her heart, james
Looks like, yes, but mechanically very different. The large frame Charter is a dandy in .38 Special, I had a late model Police Undercover which was a great wheelgun. Sold it to get out of debt, unfortunately.
On a semi-related note I have a Rossi 461 .357 with 3" tube and love it! It's basically a heavy duty Detective Special with S&W style lockwork. Uses the same holsters and speedloaders too.

Colt is killing me. They remade it in a smaller frame and only available with a 3” barrel with no adjustable sights. Why in the heck wouldn’t they offer it in a 5.5” version original size frame with adjustable sights for hunting?
I'm a long time fan of 3 inch barreled revolvers. While the weight of this one may deter some from thinking of it as a carry gun, I see the weight of a recoil reducer for a full power cartridge. Good job, Colt!
the real deal....
I've seen a couple at the LGS and shows. They are nice, but boy are they pricey.
YUP! I have one too!

I remember they were $359 bucks but didn’t want one since I already had an andaconda. Kicking myself now! And $1200 to $1500 for a python was out of my range at the time.
Perhaps a bit like the Rossi 44 special.
