Sighting is provided by a pinned ramp front sight with an orange plastic insert and a black adjustable rear notch sight. Key markings include the roll-mark KING followed by a cobra head logo and COBRA on the left side of the barrel, while the right side is marked -.357 MAGNUM CARTRIDGE- above COLT’S PT. F.A. MFG. CO.

Note – All firearms require a federal 4473 background check.
Condition report:
The brushed stainless steel finish is in very good condition, showing only minor handling marks and light surface scratches consistent with careful use. The six-shot cylinder displays a light, well-defined turn line. The bore is bright with sharp, distinct rifling. The action appears to function correctly, although we have not function-tested this firearm. The black rubber grips are well-preserved with sharp checkering and intact gold-tone medallions.
