Description

This is a previously owned and used firearm. The Firearm pictured is the exact one you are ordering. You can expect various levels of cosmetic and use wear patterns, but an otherwise fully functional firearm. Shark Coast Tactical does not keep a record of how long the guns were in use or potential round count through the firearm. These firearms are sold as-is and include any accessories that may be shown in the pictures. All sales are final.

The Cobra was made in three models: the First Model, made from 1950–1971 and weighing 15 ounces unloaded with 2-inch barrel, and an improved Second Model, made from 1972–1981, recognizable by its shrouded ejector rod and Baughman-style ramp front sight, with an unloaded weight of 16 ounces. The third issue debuted from 2017 in stainless steel finishes and are rated for 38 +P Spl. cartridges. None of the Cobra models are rated for 38 +P+ Spl cartridges.

The Cobra is the same overall size and configuration as the famous Colt Detective Special and uses the same size “D” frame, except that the Cobra’s frame is constructed of lightweight aluminum alloy as compared to the all-steel frame of the Detective Special. In the mid-1960s, the Detective Special’s and Cobra’s grip frame was shortened to the same size as that of the Agent.
