This analysis delves into the internal mechanisms of the new Colt Python revolvers, comparing them to older models to identify the cause of reported failures. The primary issue is identified as a redesigned 'hand' component, likely made from cast/MIM material with a thin, sharp point that shears off during rapid firing or 'short-stroking,' leading to cylinder rotation failures. While other internal parts appear improved, the hand's metallurgy and design are deemed problematic.
