For as long as I can remember my dad's wanted a colt python and him wanting one has made me want one since I was like 14 lol. For whatever reason neither one of us just never spent the money to get one. Well that changed today lol. Me and my mom decided to go in together and get my dad one for Christmas and I picked up this 1980 38 spl target model with a 8" barrel today. The action on this thing is just incredible.
