The Colt King Cobra Carry delivers proven .357 Magnum stopping power in a compact double-action-only platform engineered for concealed carry and personal protection. This brushed stainless steel revolver combines Colt's legendary reliability with modern defensive features in a 2-inch barrel configuration.
What Makes This Different
Unlike many compact revolvers that sacrifice durability for size, the King Cobra Carry maintains full stainless steel construction throughout the frame, cylinder, and barrel. The double-action-only trigger system eliminates external hammer snags while providing consistent 10-12 pound trigger pulls. Colt's linear leaf spring system replaces traditional coil springs, reducing lock time by 15% compared to standard designs.
