I owned a Colt DS back in 1974, that was taken in a robbery. I always wanted to replace it, and never did. Mainly the prices on them went crazy after they stopped making them.
So this new Cobra, I hear and read, it's a DS in brushed Stainless. What is the inside scoop? If any of you fellas saw or shot one, I sure would like to know.
I thought of polishing out the stainless to get it to look like my Nickel plated model that was taken, and perhaps put a set of Altamont grips on it. Thus duplicating a newer version of my first CCW gun.
It says it comes with Tritium front sight, thought it was fiber optic, but I guess it's both. I like the Colts because they were at the time the best looking 6 shooter around, and still are one of the nicest looking.
I really wish they remade the Python, "maybe" if this one sells they will. I predicted this "revolver" marketing idea had to occur, as there is just so much you can do with a 9mm semi auto, before it gets too silly. We reached that point now. All the RMR's lasers etc have been done, and unless they throw a heat seeking rocket on the rail, it's now a "Slide Decorating", and "strippeling", race.Who can make the most interesting holes and remove metal, and plastic in the most creative ways.
