I have moved this section to a separate page (Colt Python in popular culture) as per the norm for such sections when they grow too large (see MP5, Dragunov Sniper Rifle etc.) since they detract from the main article and some argue they should never have been even be included in the first place. It also aides in inclusion of the Colt Python's appearances in films and video games in the pages: List of firearms in films and List of firearms in video games.

"full barrel underlug, ventilated rib"

Could someone with knowledge on the subject explain the terms "underlug" and "rib" in the context of firearms for those that are unaware of their meaning, as these terms currently don't have their own articles? - 81.178.104.77 13:17, 3 September 2006 (UTC) Sure, the under lug is the round shape of steel on the underside of the barrel that runs from the cylinder to the muzzle. The "rib" is the metal that has longuated gaps on the top of barrel to allow cooling of the barrel.[reply]

I removed the Military History project tag, because this revolver was never used by any military. If someone knows differently, please let us know. Arthurrh (talk) 14:09, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
