Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt King Cobra is a stainless steel, double-action/single-action revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, designed for both durability and precision. First introduced in 1986 as an evolution of the Trooper Mark V, the King Cobra was Colt’s response to the increasing demand for stainless steel revolvers. Featuring a 4-inch full lug barrel, this model provides excellent balance and reduced muzzle flip, making it well-suited for both defensive use and target shooting. Its construction is robust, built to withstand continuous use with Magnum ammunition, a hallmark of Colt’s high-performance revolver designs. The firearm's finish is stainless steel, which enhances its resistance to corrosion and wear, making it an excellent choice for both law enforcement and civilian shooters. One of the defining characteristics of the King Cobra is its distinctive barrel stamping, featuring a Cobra head logo—marking a break from Colt’s tradition of only including the model name and caliber on the barrel.

The revolver's optics and sighting system consist of an orange insert ramp front sight paired with an adjustable white outline rear sight, offering quick target acquisition and improved accuracy. The black checkered synthetic grips with gold Colt medallions provide a secure and ergonomic hold, contributing to better control and recoil management. Notably, this model bears standard markings along with German proof marks above the serial number in the crane area, indicating that it was inspected and approved for sale in Germany. Throughout its production history, the King Cobra underwent various modifications, including the introduction of the Enhanced King Cobra in 1997, which featured a drilled and tapped frame for scope mounting, a larger cylinder release, and a recessed muzzle. Despite its strong reputation, the King Cobra experienced a turbulent production cycle, initially discontinued in 1992, reintroduced in 1994, and ultimately discontinued again in 1998. However, its legacy endures as one of Colt’s most iconic and sought-after .357 Magnum revolvers, combining rugged durability with refined craftsmanship.
