Asking about that here and posting a link? That's like introducing your hot Eastern European girlfriend to a few hundred of your buddies. Good luck with that. :supergrin:

The King Cobra was Colt's entry into the over-built .357 market that Ruger's GP-100 and S&Ws 686 dominated at the time.

A solid pistol with Mk V action (IIRC). Shouldn't have any serious warts.

Good luck.
