COLT PYTHON 3" MATTE BLUED 357 MAG
Product Information & Specs
The Modern Icon: Performance Meets a Stealth Aesthetic
The Colt Python 3â Matte Blued is the rugged, purpose-built evolution of the legendary "Snake Gun." While the classic Python is known for its mirror-like polish, this Matte Blued variant is designed for those who demand the prestige of a Colt in a durable, glare-resistant finish.
Chambered in .357 Magnum (and fully compatible with .38 Special), this 3-inch model represents the "Goldilocks" of the Python familyâoffering a perfect balance of concealability, sight radius, and recoil management.
Guns.com Tested: A New Standard for the Python
We didnât just list this revolver; we put it through its paces. In our full Guns.com review of the Matte Blued Python, our experts highlighted the redesigned action, which delivers a "smooth-as-glass" trigger pull that surpasses the original hand-fitted models in consistency. The 3-inch barrel length proved exceptionally accurate during testing, providing enough heft to soak up magnum recoil while remaining compact enough for daily carry.
Key Features of the 3-Inch Matte Blued Python:
- Forged Carbon Steel Frame: Unlike the stainless models, this carbon steel build offers a traditional feel with a modern, tactical matte finish that resists wear and reduces glare.
- Upgraded Action: Built with 30% more steel beneath the rear sight for unmatched durability and a non-stacking leaf spring trigger action.
- Precision Barrel: The one-piece carbon steel barrel features the signature ventilated rib and a recessed target crown for match-grade accuracy.
- Premium Ergonomics: Equipped with checkered walnut target stocks and the iconic Colt gold medallions, providing a secure grip and timeless look.
- Adjustable Sights: A user-replaceable orange-stripe front sight paired with a fully adjustable rear sight allows you to dial in your point of aim for any load.

WARNING
Why Buy from Guns.com?
PEACE OF MIND
Shopping at Guns.com gives you the backing of a company that is committed to your satisfaction. And unlike our competitors, it extends beyond the buying process. We get the FFL from your store â others make you find it, copy it, and fax it. We have a generous return policy, and handle everything â you donât have to go back to the store. And our Rangemasters are here to answer all your questions about our products or process. We're bringing a level of service to the online gun buying experience that is unheard of.
WE SUPPORT LOCAL GUN STORES
Many online gun sales actually take away from your local community. Instead of buying a gun thatâs on your local storeâs shelf, most retailers drop ship it from a warehouse in another state. At Guns.com, if an FFL is part of our network, we sell THEIR guns first whenever possible. That way, weâre helping small businesses in your community AND if they have it in stock, you can pick your gun up IMMEDIATELY â itâs how business should be done.
WE KEEP IT SIMPLE
Most everything can be easily bought online these days. But for some reason, buying a gun online can be complicated. Most websites are poorly organized, donât tell you a lot about what youâre buying, and leave you on your own to figure out what you want. Guns.com is built to be simple â easily organized products, useful descriptions from experts, and support to guide you to the right choice. Spend your time enjoying the gun you want, not getting frustrated with a complex website that makes gun buying hard.
