The blue Python will initially be offered with 4.25" and 6" barrel lengths. When I started in law enforcement in the late 1980s, the 4" Python was considered the “Cadillac” of duty guns.

In 2024, Colt answered consumer demands with two models of blued Python, one with a 4.25" barrel and another with a 6" barrel.

One of seven mid-20th century Colt handguns named after snakes, the Python was introduced in 1955. The Python was a beefy, all steel and wood revolver chambered in .357 Magnum.
