A gun in one hand and a babe in the other - what a privelege to be an American!! BTW, I saw an all-stainless Colt King Cobra .357 in a pawn shop the other day for $475. Clean as a whistle. I snatched that puppy up real quick. It would be my dying wish to have some otherwise faceless bureaucrat be the recipient of its intended use, should it come to that.
Sounds kinda expensive. What kind of gun is that?
I hadn't shopped for a gun in 10 years, and the only high-quality Colt revolver I knew of then was the Python, which was $675 new in 1986. I'm sure the equivalent today would be $1200 or more, so I thought the Cobra at $475 used was a good deal. I assume the Cobra is equivalent to the Python, it sure looks and feels like it. If you're familiar with these things, you can tell a lot just by pulling the trigger and "feeling" the action.
