Colts bad QC

The Pythons are more like $1699.

Thanks, when I saw the $899 quote above I was like but then nothing under $2000 here or on gunbroker so I was

There are 2 lands noticeably lower than the other 4. I managed to get an obvious pic. Of one.

In for range report.

Hoping the gun doesn't explode with this trash quality.

So why didn't you see this stuff before you ever bought the gun?

There is a chrome finish python at Sandy Springs Gun Range, I "think" it was $1699, MSRP is $1499, https://www.colt.com/series/PYTHON_SERIES I didn't fondle it for long, it seemed solid, but I didn't inspect the barrel grooves, the reviews on it are mixed, so I didn't feel the need to buy it.

Hillary hole or not......It's always S&W for me.

The first time I thought it was carbon buildup. It was hard to tell unless you had a light in it. This one got shipped to my door.

The finish looks good but let's just say the Lands are still not even. ... I had a buddy look at it and he noticed it as well when I pointed it out. This will be my last paperweight I buy from Colt.

It's a short-barreled, fixed-sight, combat/defensive handgun,
not a benchrest rifle.
Will those lands and grooves spin a .357 diameter bullet
and adequately stabilize it enough to hit your adversary in the chest
at 25 or even 50 yards?

That's what it was made for. I would think that the gun's specs,
and the Q.C. tolerances, have some relation to the gun's intended use and purpose.

Mic the lands and grooves.
