I've always wanted a Python


That's the model I'm after as well, but would be proud to own a Diamondback as well.

ETA - Looks like Diamondback is .38 & .22 only, so scratch that. I want a .357

The Python is widely considered the best double action revolver ever made. I don't have one but have shot a handful of them. They have an extremely smooth trigger pull.

I only know that they were produced from 1955 to 1999.

I personally want a Python in a 4 or 6inch barrel in stainless.

One of my closest friends had an Anaconda. That's another that I would love to own. It had a very short production run from 1990-1999.

Actually looks like Colt stopped making all revolvers in 1999 after financial troubles.
