Manufactured in 1983, the Colt Python Silver Snake was the first stainless steel firearm manufactured by Colt in a very limited 250 unit run from the Custom Shop. Featuring an adjustable white outlined rear sight, and red ramp front. The right side of the barrel is etched with a floral pattern bordering an unfurled banner with the dates "1836" and "1982" with Samuel Colt's signature in the middle of the banner. Also depicted is the Colt factory dome and the Colt Custom Shop logo. The left side of the barrel is similarly embellished, with the same floral pattern, dome and Custom Shop logo bordering an unfurled banner reading "SILVER SNAKE .357 MAGNUM". The left side of the frame features an etched coiled python. The included factory letter confirms the revolver's features including chambering, 6 inch barrel, stainless finish, and Pachmayr grips with inset Colt Custom Shop pewter medallions, when shipped to Ellett Brothers Inc. of Chapin, South Carolina, on June 28, 1983. Includes a Colt soft case.
