The price is right compared to an original, but it ain't cheap.
Waddaya thin?
I have a Diamond Back 22. Great gun.
It is, and I want one! But could never afford it again. Same as the new HK SP5!!!
$1500 for a revolver? Jeez.
This is the same company who just said civilians can’t be trusted with the AR-15 family of weapons and stopped sales of them. They’re also making noises like they don’t really want to sell any modern weapons to civilians.
Their Colt Cobra that they came out with/relaunched a couple of years ago was kind of crap, too. Felt cheap, not very well finished, reports of MIM part failures...
I bought a six inch blued Python with a Bianchi shoulder holster in the ‘80s for $500.
Sold it in the ‘80s for $500.
One of only four guns I’ve ever sold and the biggest regret of the four.
It felt like it did the aiming for me. Never been as accurate with any other revolver or pistol.
Gee, I think I’ll pass
Beautiful guns but unreliable with a bit of dirt and not strong enough for max loads
I’ll stick with my GP100s and custom shop mod 19 that always work, aren’t finicky, and I’d be hard pressed to blow them up while being more than accurate enough to consistently nail a paint can at 100+ yds.
Happy w my S&W 686 7rd. 4”
Far too expensive and it does not come with a 5 inch barrel. nothing to see here
*bang*
(thought might be of interest to you)
Never could get a feeling of connection with DA revolvers. Loved my SA Ruger Super Blackhawk. The Super Redhawk, meh.
That crunch and click just was the pits for accuracy. I suppost those little snubby things have a place, but I remain a semi-auto guy.
Hyperbole much?
I'm a S&W guy and I'e had a few Rugers.
Colt was nothing to get excited about.
Would like to shoot a SAA and compare it to my Interarms Virginian Dragoon.

Always loved Pythons. Never had one, closest I ever got was the Crosman Co2 pellet revolver lookalike.
I have a Ni plated colt Python I bought in 1997 for $350. It was owned by an abortion doctor who had death threats against him. He kept it in his car under the drivers seat. I was at an indoor range with it in 2018 and the owner offered me $3000 for it. Was it a legit offer? I offered to let him have it if I could shoot 600 rounds per year, for life, through his fully automatic HK9 he got from the Milwaukee police dept.
I still have the 4” Python my dad bought for me in 1974 when I was 16 years old. It cost $180. I used his RCBS A1 press to reload my own ammunition.
I had a Python 30 years ago. Very good gun, but I’ve had many other guns since that were just as good and didn’t cost $1,500.
The Colt Python was the Bentley of revolvers.
