Brand new Colt Python, back to factory next day

[808matt]

Didn’t want to clutter the revolver forum, since these snake guns don’t seem to have a place in action sports.  I bought a 6” new style Python yesterday, pretty disappointed to be honest.  It has to go back to Colt for repairs before I even had a chance to fire it.  The cylinder will lock up every dozen or so trigger pulls, similar to the widely reported problems when they first released.  So it seems for at least some revolvers, Colt hasn’t fixed their QC issues yet in 2023.
The trigger is only OK as well.  9.5-10# double action, and 5.5# single action with a little creep.
