Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Following World War II, Colt was one of the first gun companies to begin making guns using new "Space Age" materials like aluminum. Colt's first entry in the field was with the aluminum-framed Colt Commander automatic of 1949. Their second entry was with an aluminum frame version of the Detective Special. Colt called this aluminum alloy "Coltalloy". This new model was named the Colt Cobra. This was the first time Colt named a gun after a snake and led to a series of "Snake" named pistols made by Colt. It was basically just the Detective Special with an aluminum frame, side plate, and cylinder crane. The barrel and all other parts were made of steel. It was produced from 1950 to 1981.
Over the years, the Cobra was offered in barrel lengths of 2 inches, 3 inches, and 4 inches. There were a few rare 5-inch square butt models made for the Venezuelan government. Calibers were .38 Special, .32 New Police (.32 S&W), .38 New Police (.38 S&W), and .22LR. Finishes were bright-blued steel parts with blue-black anodized aluminum parts, or in full bright nickel. During the big Colt strike of the 1980s, the Cobra was made in an unpolished dull black finish with smooth wood grips. Early 4-inch guns had square butts, later changed to the same rounded butt as the 2-inch version. Early guns had "Coltwood" plastic grips with molded silver-colored Colt medallions, later changed to plastic grips with no medallions, then to checkered Walnut with silver medallions, and finally to Combat style grips with no medallions. As with all the "D" frame Colt revolvers, the Cobra was available on special order with the Colt hammer shroud installed.
