No. If you've ever owned a Python or Diamondback, you can feel the difference. The actions are like butter and can only be duplicated by fitting, disassembling, polishing, refitting, etc. Why do you think no one is producing those guns? Because, it can only be accomplished with by master gunsmithing. There aren't even many gunsmiths that can work on the old Colt snakes, much less build them.

Now, there was a period in the 1980s when Colt's labor force went on strike and the managers tried to build the guns. It was a mess. And those guns are still out there.

You need to get into the 21st century. Your way of thinking is why businesses fail. The Python is a machine and all machines can be mass produced if there is a market to support that. It is ridiculous to suggest that all of the internal parts have to be hand-made for a specific gun.
