Colt's King Cobra - 10/22/14
Okay...I know it isn't a Python.
With that out of the way, what can you guys tell me about them?
I have been looking for a 6" stainless .357 and had been debating between the 686 and GP100...walked into a local shop and saw a 6" KC stainless .357...for $1300 and in fine shape.
What I am seeing online shows this is about middle of the road on prices.
It would be a shooter.
I know the Colt's are only climbing right now so I don't figure I could lose money if I hold onto it a year and decide to sell.
Design wise I read it is robust...not as refined as the Python but probably as good or a step better than the 686/gp100.
The cylinder looks a little short. As a cast bullet shooter, will this cause me any grief with any specific bullet profiles?
What am I missing? I put a deposit on it to give me a night to think and research on it. Keep or pass?
