Are the grips on that one original?
As far as the new one goes, it's a great shooter. Should give it a try sometime.

Those are correct stocks for the era. When Colt began installing the shrouded ejector rod they also went to these fuller stocks. The piece is priced a bit high but it depends on a hands-on examination and whether it comes with its original box and papers. I don't much care about the box and don't pay extra for it but it's a nice bonus if there. Still...I think it's priced a bit high. Maybe a counter-offer will work for someone.
There is a holster with it, probably 70s vintage, too.
No box or papers that I know of but this is the improved “second model” with the shrouded ejector rod. I’m not a fan of the exposed ejector rods.

When I was in law enforcement and at the time was restricted to revolvers, the one I carried most often off-duty was a blued Cobra like that...only with Pachmayr Compac grips. I occasionally carried a Detective Special or a Python but the Cobra was the favorite. Lightweight...accurate...reliable. As good as it gets for revolvers. They're damn fine revolvers.

Lol, sure, let me pull out that extra $5 grand.

Speaking of higher end revolvers, I was so excited when I heard that S&W was coming out with new Performance Center 686 models with vented ribs. 
But then I saw pictures of them ... I guess these are competition features instead of an homage to an earlier generation of classics ...

GymRatz has a 4" for sale of which I am thinking about pulling out the CC to make a deposit. I want one because they just look bad ass.
Getting the revolver bug, are you?

Not really. I don't feel like learning a new grip lol and I HATE shooting. I keep telling you that

There's nothing wrong with revolvers...they're about as obsolete as tomorrow. It all comes down to proficiency with whichever firearm you choose. Choose wisely.
$699 for the new Cobra at Grabagun ...

Ok price in the current market. Given the limited production, do wonder if they'll ever be consistently priced less. There are occasional, very limited, deals for less.

At least there is no transfer fee with these.
The VZ grips on the new Cobra. Digging the texture of the hyena brown ones.
