I just acquired my third Python. My 1963 blue 4-inch and my 1981 blue 6-inch both shoot decent groups, like 1.5 inches at 25 yards with factory or handloaded ammo, .38's or .357's. My latest is a 6-inch, made is 1976, that supposedly has been through the Colt Custom shop for that service they used to provide whereby they made it into a PPC gun--it has a very light, buttery smooth double action, and very light, crisp single action trigger. The gun has what I think may be an Armalloy finish, I don't think it is Colt Electroless Nickel, cause it does not look like my Gold Cup that is Electroless(will try to post a pic in another message), and appears to be in mint condition. It locks up nice and tight, and does not seem to be spitting lead or anything. However, it shoots 4-5-6 inch groups, that seem to spread a little more horozontally than vertically. Is this a timing problem, a bad forcing cone, a sloppy barrel, or what? Anybody know what Colt would ask to look at it, re-time if necessary? Thanks.
