Fit & Sizing

This leather holster has been physically tested with a Colt Python .357 Magnum six-shot revolver equipped with a 5-inch barrel. The holster body measures approximately 9 inches in overall length.

The open-bottom design allows longer barrels to extend through the muzzle opening while the holster supports the revolver around its frame and cylinder. This construction provides additional barrel clearance for longer-barrel Colt Python configurations.

Although the open bottom accommodates barrel extension, compatibility with other barrel lengths and Colt Python generations has not been independently verified. Proper fit also depends on the firearm's frame, cylinder, and overall configuration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this leather holster fit my Colt Python 357 Magnum?
This holster has been physically tested with a Colt Python .357 Magnum six-shot revolver featuring a 5-inch barrel. Fit with other configurations should be verified before ordering.

Will this holster accommodate longer Colt Python barrels?
The open-bottom design allows longer barrels to extend through the holster rather than being restricted by a closed muzzle. However, additional barrel clearance does not guarantee compatibility with every longer-barrel Colt Python.

Is the bottom of the holster completely open?
Yes. The muzzle end is open, allowing the barrel to extend beyond the leather holster body.

How does the holster secure the revolver?
The holster uses a traditional leather hammer retention tie. A separate leather leg tie helps stabilize the holster during belt carry. Always verify secure retention and proper trigger coverage before use.

Is this an OWB Colt Python holster?
Yes. It is designed for outside-the-waistband belt carry and traditional Western revolver setups.

Can I order a left-handed Colt Python holster?
Yes. Both right-hand and left-hand draw options are available. Select your preferred handedness before adding the holster to your cart.

Does the leather holster require break-in?
New leather holsters may initially feel snug. Normal use may allow the leather to settle around the firearm's profile. Do not force the firearm into the holster or modify the leather in a way that interferes with safe retention.

Is the revolver or belt included?
No. Each order includes one leather holster in the selected design, color, and handedness. Firearm, belt, and ammunition are not included.
