The Diamondback is built on Colt's D-frame and is chambered in .22 LR with a six-round fluted cylinder. It operates in double-action/single-action and uses an external hammer, staying true to the model's classic configuration.
The 6 inch barrel carries a ventilated rib, full underlug, and ejector shroud, echoing the lines associated with the Python. The steel construction and high-polish blued finish present the distinctive Colt look of the era.
Target-style adjustable iron sights are standard, with a serrated ramp front sight and fully adjustable rear sight. This setup supports precise sight alignment and fine point-of-impact adjustments.
Factory-style checkered walnut grips with gold Colt medallions complement the blued steel, and the full-size profile provides a traditional balance point for a 6 inch-barreled rimfire revolver.
Made in the USA in 1984, this Diamondback represents Colt's classic snake-gun family with period-correct features and clean mechanical presentation.
