HFC HG-132B Python 4" NBB Gas Revolver

If you're looking for that iconic revolver look, the HG-132B Python 4" from HFC will give you exactly that! This gas non-blowback revolver is styled after the real steel Colt Python, probably the most recognisable modern revolver, often seen in movies and TV shows in the hands of heroes and villains alike.

Like HFC's other revolvers, the HG-132B functions almost exactly like the real thing, offering a double action/single action trigger, rotating cylinder, removable shells and a realistic "spur" hammer. While it may be a challenge to compete with GBB pistol users in-game, using the HG-132B is an experience unlike any other and its high gas efficiency makes it an ideal last-ditch back-up or winter CQB sidearm.

Starting at the front, we have the iconic Python-style front end, complete with a heat mirage-reducing shroud on the top. This is what makes the HG-132B the perfect stand-in for Hollywood's favourite revolver, the Colt Python, matching the front end look almost perfectly.

Moving rearwards, we come to the frame which is also constructed from ABS polymer and includes a moving cylinder which rotates every time the trigger is pulled or the hammer is cocked. To open the cylinder and get to the shells, you can push forwards on the textured cylinder release and the cylinder will swing out to the left side. The cylinder release also functions as a hidden trigger lock safety by pushing it rearwards, giving you an added level of security when the revolver is stored.

To extract the shells, the easiest way is to place a thumb on the cylinder and your index finger on the tip of the cylinder axis pin. With this done, pushing the pin towards your thumb will eject the shells inside. A single BB is loaded into the front of each shell, giving you a mere 6 uninterrupted shots before a challenging reload. This makes the Python 4" a tough platform to use against AEGs and GBB pistols but great for the skirmisher who wants to test their skills, rack up humiliation kills or carry a last-ditch backup pistol which is reliable, lightweight and easy to carry. A slight shortcut we noticed is that you can load a BB into each shell through the front of the cylinder without ejecting them, but where's the fun in that?

With the cylinder loaded, you can push it back into place in the frame, after which you have two choices when it comes to shooting. Cocking the hammer will prime the trigger in "single action" mode, giving you a shorter trigger pull for more accurate shots. Pulling the trigger without cocking the hammer will rotate the cylinder, cock the hammer and fire the shot all in rapid succession in what is known as "double action".

The hammer and trigger are both constructed from alloy to provide extra strength where needed, and the hammer is a "spur" type with a textured section on the top for improved gripping qualities. The hammer even has a realistic mock firing pin which extends when it is cocked. Moving downwards, we come to the grip which is styled after the Raging Bull but slightly smaller to match the sizing of HFC's Python. The grip has comfortable finger ridges on the front and dot-textured panels on either side for perfect wet-weather handling.

The gas fill valve is located on the base of the grip, and as with a GBB pistol magazine, the pistol needs to be inverted to fill. You should get a decent number of shots from a full gas fill thanks to the NBB action which is extremely gas-efficient. We recommend standard green gas(NUPROL 2.0, ASG Ultrair, VORSK V6 etc) for regular use and red gas or VORSK V8 for use in colder weather.

If you're looking for the classic revolver aesthetic in an affordable sidearm, the HFC HG-132B Python 4" NBB Gas Revolver is exactly that. The authentic revolver experience is hard to beat and super fun to play with; while you may not be able to pump out rounds as fast as a GBB pistol the HG-132B will have you smiling from ear to ear!
