Picked up a brand new Stainless Colt Cobra 6 shooter at Skagit Arms. In and out the door in under 20 minutes. She's a snuggly snake that suits appendix carry very well. Oiled her up and stuck her in a Remora holster. Good 2 Go. I foresee it being carried for many years to come.


So what's the build quality like?

very good build quality. Machining is a tad rough in spots, but the fit of all the parts is phenomenal. I think it's a winner. It has a satin bead blast, working gun finish. It looks and feels like it is made to be carried daily.

Took my wife and her friend (who needs to qualify for DOC next month) out to shoot an AR and two pistols. The friend was much improved by the time we left and my wife got to shoot my newest pistol for the first time.



Did they not have a pulse? Or couldn't fog a mirror?


I'm confused??? Are the 49ers in town?

That doesn't look like SS to me, looks more like Bead Blast or "Satin" as some manufacturers call it.

I call it Stainless steel with a satin bead blast finish. My 686+ got the same finish from S&W when they slicked it up. The trigger on the Colt is pretty damn good, but it's hard to beat a trigger souped up from the S&W Performance center like this 686+ sports.

Here it is next to a 686+. Hard to tell in the picture, but the 686+ is much larger and heavier.

Welcome to the forum!


I found the only rifle I regretted selling not 15 minutes ago on armslist. Turns out the other guy got tired of it and put it up for sale. Opened a conversation with him and he`s game to hold onto it until after I fulfill another commitment.

But why reload 5.56? It's so cheap.
