Yes, the Python was mass produced
Colt Python - Wikipedia But, probably as respected as the RM/M27 family by many. Prices on the Pythons are bat$h*t crazy, when compared to the M27. However, not as out there as the RM. The Python was a custom made piece at the end of it's run. Apples and oranges........... Had a Python, but sold it as I felt it was to muzzle heavy in the six inch form.

Someday I hope to be able to shoot a RM and see for myself. However, I think this poor boy will stay with his m27's.
