A buddy of mine bought an AR-15 and went on line and bought 1000 rounds of the rock bottom cheapest brass cased ammo he could find. He didn’t read the reviews on the site. First round failed to extract. It was locked up tighter than Dick’s hatband the only way to clear it was to collapse the...

I made up some shotshells a while ago using .45 Auto Rim cases and Speer .45 Colt plastic shot shell capsules and #9 shot. I used a 45 ACP taper crimp die to prevent crushing the shot capsule. Those are some scratches and not splits on reloaded cases. Used them several times. They work great and...

I like them a lot. They are engineering jewels and make a great BUG. These are last resort guns and are not for primary carry. This is my Sidewinder with swing out cylinder. And this is my Ranger 2. The same holster fits either one. I have a holster for each and put boot grips on them for...

I have had no failures to fire with my two 2019 King Cobras. Sweet triggers. The 4-1/4” is the newest, so only a couple of boxes of 38 special 158 grain FMJ practice rounds and a box of 158 grain JSP magnums. Right now it is a range toy until I can get a chest rig for it. Played with it...

I have two of the 2019 King Cobras...one with 3” barrel and the other one is the 4-1/4” King Cobra Target. They are great guns. George Bowers at GB Leather Co. from Tennessee made a holster for each. He sells through Etsy.com and through his website. I use both HKS DS speedloaders and...

Hmmmmmmmmm...Didn’t know Armscor was using Starline marked brass like some boutique ammo makers do. Hand loads maybe???? Might not have cleaned the primer pockets and failed to seat the primers home? seems to be limited to that brand in the video. Also can’t ride the trigger on these Colts like...

I own several GP100 revolvers and with the sole exception of the GP100 Match Champion, their triggers all suck. Very gritty, and heavy. The Match Champion isn’t and is my main ridge walking gun. for everyday carry, I stick with the new Colt King Cobras. Superb triggers, 8 lb double action, 3...

I haven’t seen an “official” recall from Colt, just a couple of bloggers ranting. As I’ve posted before, I own four new Colts, two 38+P Cobras (2017 Cobra, 2018 Night Cobra) and two 2019 King Cobras in 357 magnum, the 3” model and the 4-1/4” Target. Have had zero problems with them so I’m not...

I’ve got four of the new Colts and plan on adding the new 4” Python to the stable. So far, both Cobra and Night Cobra and the two King Cobras have functioned flawlessly and I haven’t had any issues yet. Ya just can’t ride the trigger on them like folks do semiautos. Some issues are user error...

Thanks. Will check them out.

Thank you. I looked them over too but they don’t list a holster for the new King Cobra. It is smaller than the old model. I plan to call them next week and see what they offer.

That would work...I looked at their website but they don’t list a rig for the new Colt King Cobra. I did send them an email asking if they plan to make one. Haven’t heard back yet...maybe Monday.

Big dilemma...I just got a new model 2019 Colt King Cobra Target with 4.25” barrel and need a chest holster rig. This gun is built on a smaller frame than the original King Cobra so those holsters are too big. It is made on the Colt D - Frame but with the grip set back some, according to Colt...

This is my setup. 1-3x scope. I got QD rings either from MidwayUSA or Amazon...cannot remember. The front hood disappears on 3x setting. the pouches are for Mosin Nagant stripper clips but the 7.62x39 CZ 527 magazines fit just fine.
