Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
By the early 1980s, the buying public had made it clear that they preferred stainless steel revolvers, so in 1986, Colt upgraded the Trooper Mark V to stainless steel and changed the barrel to a full under-lug-shrouded type. Other than the barrel profile and use of stainless, the gun is the same as the Mark V. Colt named the new model the King Cobra, continuing its use of snake-named revolvers. As a first for Colt, a Cobra head was part of the barrel stamp, breaking with the tradition of having only the name and caliber stamped on the barrel. The King Cobra was a first in the gun business in that it was the first time a new model of the revolver was introduced in stainless steel before a blued version. A blued model was introduced a year later. The King Cobra, like the Trooper Mark III and Mark V, was an extremely strong, rugged revolver specifically designed for unlimited use with Magnum ammunition. The King Cobra was available with barrels of 2 1/2", 3" (limited), 4", 6", and 8". Caliber was .357 Magnum. Finishes were satin stainless steel, bright polish stainless, and bright blue. Grips were Pachmayr "Gripper" with gold Colt medallions, Vintage Industry copies of the Pachmayer Gripper made for Colt with silver medallions and checkered walnut with gold medallions.
