I saw a Colt Cobra today in a store. The bluing is worn in places, mainly the cylinder. Splotchy wear showing steel, but no rusting. The trigger is excellent - smooth and not too light. Timing seems fine. Firing pin on hammer. Asking price - $300.
I forgot to look at serial number.
Is this a good price? I assume that rebluing will kill resale value.
Can I use the same grips as other D-frame Colts?
Which other revolvers share the same speedloaders? I thought I read somewhere that some Colts used the same speedloaders as some S&Ws.
Are some generations or serial number runs know to be better or worse?
Anything else I need to know about this gun?
I really don't need this to fill a nice and don't believe in investment guns beyond blazingly obvious ones. The trigger and lightness makes it a sweet little gun though.
