    Opinions on a Stainless Python

    I am looking for your expert opinions on my Python. I don't think the box is original to the gun but all of the paperwork included look good. I question the box because it is the 150th box when I put the DOB on the Python to be 1983. Another concern I have is the front sight. I have not seen any stainless guns with our the insert in the sight. And lastly the grips. The look factory original to me I again I have never seen a stainless gen with wood grips. Thoughts?

    Stocks are factory and early stainless Pythons did have 3rd gen target wood stocks. Wrong box (of course) and not sure what's going on with the blank label. Don't know what you mean by "stainless guns with our the insert in the sight". If you mean without the red ramp insert, early stainless Pythons had plain sights.

    I have not seen a stainless without the red insert in the site and rubbers. Thanks for the insight!

    The sights are correct for 1983. No worries
