== Overview ==
The '''{{PAGENAME}}''' is a double-action revolver with a 6-round capacity. Chambered for the high caliber [[.357 Rounds|.357 Rounds]] it can deliver a lot of damage, although at relatively short effective range. Compared to the [[FX-45]], the {{PAGENAME}} deals more damage with same accuracy. However, it is louder, has a slower rate of fire, and has less then half its ammo capacity. The magnum cylinder is slow to reload as each chamber has to be loaded manually. However, the fact that it does not require a magazine to load more than one round can be a major advantage.

Any rounds loaded into the {{PAGENAME}} begin at one to the left of the top, the last chamber. After loading an empty cylinder a cocked hammer will drop the hammer on the current chamber firing only the last chamber, and therefore will fire only fully loaded. However, with the hammer down the double action pull will rotate the cylinder and fire the first chamber, and so will fire with any number of rounds loaded. 

Pressing the reload button will cock the hammer if not cocked already.

== Trivia ==
* The {{PAGENAME}} is based on the Colt Python double-action revolver, and is subsequently also chambered in the same ammunition, .357. The {{PAGENAME}} found in-game uses the most common and popular variant of the Python - a 6-inch barrel, while other lengths are available in its real-world counterpart.
* The {{PAGENAME}} was first introduced as the '''Magnum''' in the 31st December 2013 v0.30.113925 Alpha patch, which fixed its inability to spawn from its supposed addition in v0.30.113860, a week and a half before.
* It was subsequently removed alongside its speedloader and ammunition, and nearly every weapon in the game, upon the new player controller's introduction in Experimental patch 0.63 on 14th June 2018. The '''Magnum''' was eventually reimplemented as the '''{{PAGENAME}}''' in Experimental patch 1.09.153337 on 18th August 2020. The model was updated upon reimplementation, updating textures and the model partially. Most notably in the texture, the grip's Colt seal is replaced by a rhino and the engraved "PYTHON .357" is removed, and the model is smoothed with increased vertexes, notably around the trigger guard. 
* The weapon's ejector and cylinder use individual models attached to the main model via proxy, being the only weapon in the game to do so.
