Comparisson of new Python to a older Python.

One mans view.......Hickok45 compares his new 2020 Python, after being returned to Colt, to his older 1980's Python.

Old thread but...at 9:50, the hammer does not come back near as much in double action with the new model. That's what I see anyway. Easy to see at .25 speed. Even has a different sound.
edit; And he alludes to that at 9:55.

I got one of the 2020 Pythons about a year ago. The trigger pull is nice and crisp single action, but it's 5.5 pounds. I don't think that's impressive for a gun that is MSRP $1500 and built it's reputation on the trigger pull. I have several S&W revolvers and none of them are over 3.5 pounds. It's a nice revolver, but I was a little disappointed.

And I had to send it back to Colt for the cylinder locking up occasionally. You can still make it do it if you try, but you have to try and it's not very often.

I was about to spring for the Viper and ran across troubling reviews. Then the Python appeared with a couple issues. Beautiful guns though. I think I could handle the Python issues. It's just the price.
