Rare commemorative Python pays tribute to Colt's legendary Bicentennial revolver and America's 250th anniversary
Burnsville, MN — Guns.com today announced the launch of an exclusive auction featuring a Colt Custom Shop 250th Anniversary Python, Serial No. 2, a rare collector's firearm created to commemorate America's semiquincentennial. The auction is now open and will run through September 27, giving gun owners an opportunity to bid on one of the earliest revolvers in this limited-edition series.
The special-edition Python draws inspiration from one of Colt's most coveted commemorative revolvers: the 1976 Bicentennial Python. Created to honor America's 200th anniversary, that legendary Python has become a standout among Colt collectibles. 50 years later, this modern tribute carries that legacy forward bringing together Colt craftsmanship, American history and the appeal of the Python revolver.
Serial No. 2.
Finished in bright stainless steel, the revolver features smooth walnut grips with an eagle medallion, vintage-style markings and patriotic roll engraving commemorating the nation's founding and enduring spirit.
The revolver is offered in a special commemorative package that includes a presentation box, challenge coin, three Colt Custom Shop 50th Anniversary decals and official Colt owner's manual. Together, the firearm and accompanying pieces represent a unique convergence of milestones: America's 250th anniversary, the 50th anniversary of the Colt Custom Shop and the legacy of the 1976 Bicentennial Python.
