Absolutely not.
That hammer is for a small frame Colt Diamondback. It is a totally different hammer and is totally unusable in a medium frame Python.
You'd have to have a real Python hammer. Unfortunately, like all Python parts hammers are becoming very nearly impossible to find.
Then too, the DA-only conversion may have also altered the trigger, so you might need one of those too.
Python barrels are as hard to find as hammers and often have problems, which is why they're for sale. A Python Target .38 barrel is going to be even harder to find.
However, gun parts Corp does list 8" Python barrels including one Target version.
Before buying one of these, you'd need to do some serious talking to them about why they list two barrels as 8" .38 Special, but only one as an 8" .38 Special Target and why it's so cheap. Reads like it may be set up for a scope.
What's the difference, and what's correct?
Price is heart-stopping:

Last, none of these are "drop-in" parts. If you can find the parts, you'd be very smart to send the gun in to Colt to have them properly installed and fitted.
Your local gunsmith IS NOT qualified to do this. Colt's really are "different".
