As I thumbed through the recent edition of American Rifleman I noticed they had a "New Guns & Gear" article. The item that caught my attention the most was the Colt Night Cobra.
Colt's financial health seems to be constantly on life support but they are apparently trying to capture a portion of the self-defense market. The new Night Cobra has several features that would be welcomed by most disciples of the DA snubnose revolver.
The hammer is bobbed and the action is DAO
It has a front night sight
The finish is a black DLC coating on top of the stainless steel (talk about weather proof!)
New slightly larger, rounded G10 grips
All of that in a 6 shot, +P capable package.
I'm not about to pony up the asking price but I'm glad to see Colt is putting forth the effort to make a serious Self-Defense Snubnose 38.
