Colt released 1,000 (or was it 1,500?) and there have been a few glitches. Mainly a couple folks on YouTube (Hickock 45 mainly) have had trouble with the cylinder not revolving. I figure those 1,000 Python were released partially as a form of Beta-testing. I'm not worried about it and I do plan on buying one even with the $1,499 (MSRP) price tag. Of course the Colt haters (and Colt did much to earn such bad feelings) are seizing on this, but I can recall problems with Smith & Wesson's first generation of 586/686 and having to issue a recall in the Eighties. A recall that is still honored to this day. I also recall Ruger having issues over the years as well as Kimber. I believe Glock also has had problems with new generations. It happens and I am confident that Colt will get it fixed. I have sold a few guns and I've got the money. Now I just have to wait for it to become available. I figure by this summer it should be available (hopefully). I will be watching to see if Colt does fix the problems though. If it continues to be a problem ,and the model gets past the early days, then I might take my money elsewhere. I hope that isn't the case.
