The following weapons were used in the anime series City Hunter :
Revolvers Revolvers have an important role in the story and used with frequency. They are shown with great pride and lot of cinematic closeups.
Colt Python The Colt Python is the weapon of choice used by the protagonist Ryo Saeba in all seasons. The gun it's usually shown as the 6 inch barrel version and sometimes with 4 inch barrel. In many stealth situation Ryo absurdly uses a sound suppressor. The revolver is the blued finish version with wooden grip. In City Hunter the Colt Python is shown as a very powerful handgun with a unique sound and extreme damage with high accuracy. Often it seems more powerful than others revolver with calibers like .44 and .41 Magnum. This is impossible. Probably is only a big tribute to a classic icon.
