Does anyone have one of the new Pythons? I looked at one today and they seem very nice. Would appreciate any thoughts or comments. The next question is would you buy one?

I would say that revolvers are obsolescence but not obsolete as revolvers have a few benefits over a semi auto such as if you have a round that fails to go off you just keep pulling the DA trigger and go to the next round, where as a semi auto has a more complicated/multi step operation of tap rack bang. Revolvers also can shoot the lightest / lowest recoiling rounds and any bullet type without effecting the ability of the revolver to cycle to the next round. Both of these would be an advantage compared to a semi auto. However semi autos offer a greater variety of benefits and are in most situations more ideal of a choice for most people.No, because revolvers are obsolete compared to modern semi handguns and are not optimal for CCW or defensive purposes, and plus I have a couple already.
Revolvers don't get pushed out of battery when the struggle gets up close and personal. Keeps track of the casings as well.I would say that revolvers are obsolescence but not obsolete as revolvers have a few benefits over a semi auto such as if you have a round that fails to go off you just keep pulling the DA trigger and go to the next round, where as a semi auto has a more complicated/multi step operation of tap rack bang.

to get back on topic I would pass on the new pythons as I don’t feel they offer a higher quality revolver compared to a smith and Wesson or even a Ruger GP100.
