    This gun honestly needs a nerf, I find myself constantly being insta killed by it. No matter how good no secondary should be able to insta kill you, there are 2 ways python could be nerfed one is lowering the damage till headshots can't insta kill or 2 remove headshots from python, either one would work fine.

    Being changed to always kill in 2 shots might make it a little better.
    I'm just trying to consider the fact that if it be nerfed to much, the desert eagle will outshine it.

    I agree. The deagles accuracy would prove to better than the python. All the python has is it's power. Take away that, and the deagle accuracy and decent power will overtake it.

    But a secondary insta killing is just...
    At the moment it is pretty much more powerful than almost every primary weapon there is...

    I personally like that it can instant kill with a headshot, as it's similar to the .44 Magnum and the MP-412 REX from Battlefield, which kill instantly with a headshot. However, its firerate is too high compared to its damage. In my opinion, switching the firerate of the M9 and the Python would be fine for me.

    I understand what you're saying. Keep in mind it is a pretty high level weapon to achieve, so not everyone has one. It also takes some level of skill to headshot.

    Do you have any suggestions to keep it better than the desert eagle if the damage is nerfed?

    This could work. A slower fire rate and high damage would even it out.

    I honestly don't think it should be an insta kill at all, a secondary should not be more powerful than almost every primary in the game.

    A revolver should have the power to instantly kill in the head. Again, it should receive a firerate, maybe a clip size nerf to balance the sheer power of it.

    Well if it had something more like a 6 shot clip and a rate of fire closer to the magnum then I would be fine with that.

    This idea is mostly good, but it removes one key weapon that lower-level players (like me :V) try to work for the most.

    It's always been everyone's ambition to be able to use Python.

    Making it more defined would definitely help.

    Python is the only gun that can headshot (Correct me if I'm wrong)

    Well, the only pistol.
    Actually, I think the crossbow can head shots, but that is irrelevant to this conversation.

    I think that the python is fine as it is, I don't see the benefit in changing the statistics of it.

    Well illustrated!
    Python was made to be this way, and will remain in its current state >.<

    According to my knowledge, the Deagle 3 shot kills and has a smaller clip.

    Sorry, but hell no.
    The problem of this idea isn't nesacarily the gun itself, it more of what would happen to the players if this were to be added. Constant bickering, raging, etc.

    But it has a much more accurate hipfire, meaning it'd be better for close-quarters and if you run out of bullets while rushing.

    I already know that. I was just pointing out some of the disadvantages compared to the Python.
