Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
In the early 1980s, the public preferred stainless steel revolvers. As a result, in 1986, Colt upgraded the Trooper Mark V by making it stainless steel and changing the barrel to a full under-lug-shrouded type. The only difference between the Mark V and the new model was the barrel profile and the use of stainless steel. Colt named the new model the King Cobra, following its tradition of naming revolvers after snakes. For the first time, a Cobra head was included in the barrel stamp, breaking from the tradition of only having the name and caliber stamped on it. The King Cobra was the first revolver model introduced in stainless steel before a blued version. A blued model was introduced a year later.
Like the Trooper Mark III and Mark V, the King Cobra was designed to be a durable and robust revolver specifically constructed for unlimited use with Magnum ammunition. It was available with barrels of 2 1/2", 3" (limited), 4", 6", and 8". Its caliber was .357 Magnum. Finishes included satin stainless steel, bright polish stainless, and bright blue. The grips were either Pachmayr "Gripper" with gold Colt medallions, Vintage Industry copies of the Pachmayer Gripper, made for Colt with silver medallions, or checkered walnut with gold medallions. The front sights had red inserts, with white outlined rear sights. In 1997, the King Cobra was enhanced, coming standard with a drilled frame and tapped for a scope mount. It also had a larger cylinder release and a recessed muzzle. At the same time, the option of having the barrel ported with recoil-reducing barrel ports was offered. The production history of the King Cobra was turbulent. It was introduced in 1986, discontinued in 1992, resumed in 1994, and discontinued for the last time in 1998.
