Colt King Cobra Target

[tobin]

Start saving for this one:

Colt continues to develop its re-imagined family of “snake guns” with the release of the much-anticipated King Cobra Target. Featuring a 4¼” barrel, adjustable rear sight, elevated fiber optic front sight, and custom wood medallion grips, this revolver was thoughtfully engineered to adapt the powerful .357 magnum King Cobra to the competitive range. The new King Cobra Target is available now through the Colt dealer network for $999 USD.

Finally! Colt gets it right with a 4.25" barrel, not the usual 4.0".

I really like this new revolver! Probably use Safariland "L" frame comp 2's & 3's. Wake up revolver shooters!

Nice. I like the trigger guard. No Hilary hole, also.

 

[MuthaFunk]

Wow!! I’ll be taking to Prophet River about importing one of these!!

Everyone wants a Python so why not bring back the Cobra?? Genius.

Colt could bring back the Python but I suspect it would be a Python in name only. The Colt employees who could hand fit and hand polish Pythons are long gone.

These are just released in the US so it will probably be awhile before we see them here, but with a 4.25" barrel, we can actually get them here.

So what is the difference here?

Mass produced vs. hand fitted by master gunsmiths.

Not at all what I was asking. Colt's heyday is long over. I wouldn't buy any of their new revolvers.

What did they say about these?

 

[sixty9santa]

How much stronger and more durable is the new King Cobra vs the GP100?

Oh, I see what you were saying now. Yes, I agree. I'd rather by a 50-60+ year old Colt revolver on the EE than one of these.
