Anybody tell me when my Python was made? Four inch stainless steel. SN# KT1130. Was this from a period when Colt was largely producing qaulity stuff? Mine is a beautiful revolver in great shape. Thanks.

When I got my Python(E61xxx) last year, I had narrowed it down to mid to early 70's by checking classifieds on the web and comparing s/n's and stated year of mfg'er. I then called Colt and spoke to someone that was able to tell me it was made in 1974.

My Colt reference book, Colt Firearms by Sutherland & Wilson was printed in 1971 and is only helpful in dating prior to that.
