Python

The Python is a revolver scheduled to appear in Call of Duty: Black Ops. It appears to be the token magnum pistol.

Call of Duty: Black Ops
The Python was seen at an E3 stage demo, paired with a Flash Light. In the demo, it is held similar to how characters would hold a Tactical Knife in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Players will use the magnum-flashlight combo while clearing underground tunnels during the level "Victor Charlie". It could also be noted that the sound of the reload was similar, if not the same, as the .357 Magnum from Call of Duty: World at War.

In the first MP trailer, the Python appear with an attachment called Snub Nose. What the attachment does to the gun's stats is currently unknown.

Attachments

 * Snub Nose
 * Flashlight
