I hope it is everything you wanted. A few years ago, I picked up a couple of Pythons from the 70s, in very good shooter condition. I had been wanting one for 35 years. I must have been shooting Smiths for too long, because they both looked better than they shot. My 2 1/2" 19-3 shot circles around them, as did my 4" 66-1 and my 5" 27-2. Needless to say, I still have the Smiths and no snakes in the safe. I do hear that the new Pythons are excellent shooting guns, I may have to give one a try someday. Good luck with your new Python, and don't forget the range report after you shoot it.
