My first Colt revolver was a King Cobra. What a heavy lump of steel that was. I love the "snakes" I have owned; but only a Diamondback in 22 lr is left. (Along with a detective special, in addition to my 10 inch DW 44 Magnum) It seems the revolvers are making a small comeback with Colt re issuing the Cobra and Mimber releasing the K6s. The original "Cobra" was nothing special. If the Python does come back, it will likely be a Colt Custom Shop production with a price tag to match. The used ones are fetching serious money. (I gave my 4 inch Python to my son a few years ago.)
