DrB Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Yes I know it's not the same as the snake guns of the past... I am a Colt fan boy, I admit. I have 2 of the new .38 Cobras so I will probably be bring one of these home. Just glad Colt is back in the revolver market and they don't have that hideous hole in the side, I like revolvers but not those...

TeaDub Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I am not a Colt fan boy but am glad they are back in the revolver business. Maybe they can earn a new customer? Congrats on your new toys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueiron Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 If they make the King Cobra in .22 LR caliber, I'm buying one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borg warner Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 That is a nice looking gun in the brushed stainless. What is the frame size? The original King Cobras were the D Frame same as the Python and the Trooper which was nearly the same as an L frame Smith. I know this gun has a smaller frame but is it the size of a K-frame S&W?--It looks like it. I know if I were looking for a 3 inch 357, I'd rather have one of these Colts than a new manufactured Smith and Wesson. But I used to have a Ruger speed six, the fixed sight version of the security six, with a bobbed hammer and a trigger job and that gun was just about perfect. I agree that a 22 LR version would be great and a 22 magnum version as well. --Collect all 3! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they offer it in some kind of blue-black finish but it's not really Blueing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deputy tom Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Those look pretty nice. I haven't had a Colt revolver in decades. I may have to rectify that. tom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueiron Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 The Python was an I frame revolver. The Detective Special and Diamondback were D frame revolvers. http://www.coltfever.com/Colt_Model_Guide.html https://tincanbandit.blogspot.com/2017/01/featured-gun-seven-serpents-of-colt.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
