Colt Python

A magnum revolver appearing in Resident Evil and Resident Evil: Code Veronica. In Resident Evil's remake, the Colt Python is replaced with the 'Silver Serpent', which is simply the python with a large, underbarrel weight (to cut recoil) and silver finish. Contrary to popular belief, it is not the M629C used in RE3; when examining the weapon, the Silver Serpent has the same signature contours as the Python. This weapon is slightly stronger than the old Python, and is almost identical to Barry's .357 revolver. Like all magnums appearing in the Resident Evil series, the Colt Python is very powerful, often killing regular enemies in a single hit, but has an exceedingly limited supply of ammunition and should generally be saved for boss battles.
