BSA, recalibatate your sarcasm detector.
I must really be off target today. I am not trying to be sarcastic.
BSA,
Stacking is gone…

Which is an improvement and something I will judge for myself when they become commonly available.
Also for BSA1 to counter his sample of one experience with Colt, I shall give my sample of one experience (well actually more than one).
Actually I have owned five Colt handguns and we currently own two. One is a Series 70 Gold Cup 45 acp. I regularly shoot 2” groups at 15 yards with it. The gun is capable of 1” 25 yard groups but the shooter isn’t.
The other one is a Colt Police Positive Special 3rd production model. I actually got a good deal on it at Cabelas of all places. 98% condition. It is my wife’s gun which she loves. So I am not being sarcastic when I say it is an ideal choice for women.
All I know about the Cobra is DPris post and the picture on page 38 of The American Rifleman. Nice picture but no facts. They are reusing a name but is it the same size and weight of the original?
Denis says in Post #78 that production has not even started yet. Beretta fans know about the start-up problems they are having with their new plant in Tennessee. Colt has to train employees which will be no small task since very few has experience making revolvers. Does anyone know how many employees Colt has making their SAA revolvers?
Consider the some of the problems Smith and Wesson has had with quality control and they have been continuously making the same model of revolvers for decades. Colt only lists 107 firearms on their website. Most of them are merely variations of the same model. There is going to be a steep learning curve, rejection of parts and guns and low production until everything is ironed out.
Lighten up Guys. I know Colt has lost customers because of them selling junk guns. Just because I am critical of Colt’s quality control over the past 20+ years doesn’t mean I am against a new product. What it means is I will not order and pay for one sight unseen like I did with the SAA.
