The Colt Cobra .38 Special combines traditional American craftsmanship, lightweight revolver construction, and the distinguished heritage of Colt's classic D-frame handguns. With its traditional blued finish, compact 2-inch barrel, and iconic design, this revolver is an excellent addition for collectors seeking a timeless example of Colt's legendary firearms history.
Originally introduced in 1950, the Colt Cobra was developed as a lightweight variation of Colt's popular Detective Special revolver. Built on Colt's renowned D-frame platform, the original Cobra utilized a lightweight aluminum alloy frame paired with a steel barrel and cylinder, providing a significant reduction in overall weight compared with traditional all-steel revolvers. Its compact dimensions, dependable mechanical design, and classic appearance helped establish the Cobra as one of Colt's most recognizable small-frame handguns.
