Oh it is indeed a pleasure to shoot!!!!!

Best 2 groups of 6 shots.
7 yds shooting Berry's 125g round nose, 4.2grs Titegroup, mixed brass.
The flyers are obviously my fault...well anytime they aren't in the same hole it's my fault with this fantastic pistol. :lol:

Update: After comparing schematics of a colt trooper and colt python, it is without a doubt a 1957 Colt Python, serial # 27xx.

I need to double check the cylinder to see if it is actually chambered in 357. There were Pythons in 38 though, so maybe not.
