Greeting's All-
I've never owned Colt's King Cobra; but I am proud to say that 2
S&W model 686's have been in my inventory; a 4" and a 6". The
6" 686-5 (no intergal lock) is still here, and hopefully always will
be. I had a $15 WOLFF spring kit (with 13 lb trigger return spring)
installed, and now this weapon is marvelous. Super accurate, as
it is a joy to shoot. I too, would not trade it for a King Cobra; or
even a Python*, as I don't care for Colt's triggers.
*FootNote- after owning 4 of them!
Best Wishes,
