yep 686.......nice catch and correction
The Python is front heavy.
No matter where I come across one the actions on each and every one I have had the pleasure to fire were super sweet and smoothhhhhh
Wish I had the cash for one [:(]
Didn't really notice any difference in accuracy , but only in the action itself.
JMHO [:o)]
Python & 27 as top of the line.
39. The Python is the top of the Colt line and the Model 27 (post 1957) or "Registered Magnum" (1935-1939) or simply "357 Magnum" (1939-1956)... depending on date of manufacture... is the comparable top of the S&W line. Some people make the huge mistake of asserting that the Models 586 and/or 686 are comparable to the Python but they most definitely are not. These models were intended to be service grade revolvers and in absolutely no way, shape or form do they compare to the quality of either the Python or the Model 27. The 586/686 bears a passing, superficial resemblance to the Python due to its barrel contour but that's where the similarity ends.
