The Tokyo Marui Colt Python 4" Revolver is a very simple design. I feel it is a reliable airsoft gun. There are 6 chambers each that are capable of holding 4 BBs each. Making this revolver hold a total of 24 shots.
The Revolver's "shells" are not removable like KWC or Kokusai revolvers. Instead you load the BBs directly into the chamber through the front. Stock the Revolver has decent accuracy, my fps seems to be in the 290s to 310 quite strong I think. The revolvers grips are comfortable and big so that you can get a good grip on it. You can cock the hammer back for more accurate single shots or you can just pull the trigger. De-cocking is a nice feature if you cock back the hammer and you decide you can't make the shot or something you can somewhat "disarm it" a little more than putting on the safety. The Safety switch is located behind the hammer, by pushing it forward it locks the hammer in place. When your done playing you can empty the gas chamber by cocking back the hammer, while holding it back, press the trigger and hold it back, push the hammer forward all the way and the gas will shoot out of the barrel. It is easier than shoot, shoot, shoot, and so on.
The guns weight is not much (571g) Redwolfairsoft.com claims it is "Heavy Weight" but well maybe it’s just me because I have handled it for awhile. Where the gas is inserted is on the bottom of the grip. Rear sights are adjustable for wind changes and things like that. What is a little cheap looking on this gun is the Colt logo. It is obviously plastic and takes away from the realism effect but this is not a real big deal. Red wolf arisoft also says that revolvers "emphasize style over function" but well power is not in short supply, the Python has the same or more BB capacity as an average gas gun (24rds). Because it is a revolver there is no slide to make problems arise and making you have to buy a new slide. So, slide problems are non-existent. Remember power is 290 to 310 fps. (mine)

All in all if you are thinking about getting an airsoft revolver do so. The Python is a gun worth having. Although I would recommend using it as a sidearm instead of a main arm because it is somewhat difficult to reload on the run. No Magazines. But it makes for a great sidearm, it also brings something different to the field, I don't know about you but I don't see many revolvers out there.
Update: Recently I have found that when I load 4 bbs into each chamber every time I fire 2 bbs come out, this maybe due to the fact that I am using green gas, maybe it is to strong? So now I can, it seems, only load 1 bbs into each cylinder.
