Opinions about a Colt King Cobra. Older One.

Thanks! I've done the same research, this one is like I said, like new! Virtually Un Fired! Looks like Factory tested only! I'm going for it!
BTW, The King Cobra is an upgraded Trooper Mark 5

If you have the funds, go for it! You will regret not getting it later on if you really want it. Price is within range of the market for those.

Snake guns are on the rise. Will they drop? Not for me to decide. Doesn’t look like you would lose money. Will you lose the opportunity? How many unfired snake guns have you come across in the last 5 years? How many do you expect t to see in the next 5 years? My only question is if it is unfired, wha happened to the box and extras? If it was a collector piece, why would the collector not collect the box?

Good questions! I only know this: The Dealer that has 3 Snake Guns, a Python, King Cobra & Anaconda He bought them all from an Old Guy that had them in his safe. All 3 are in same condition! Some People just throw the boxes away! I work in a Gun Shop and I can tell you, they do! Thing is: Back in 1992, who knew these would bring this kind of money now? The NEW King Cobra's are Not even as good as Ruger GP100's! And for between $800 and 900.00! Colt made a Mistake on the New Cobra's and King Cobra's! Big Time! Anyway, the Old Cobra will be mine, It's being Held for Me.

Some guys don't save that stuff. Example my father in law has a gun collection of probably 70+ guns, its unreal. Some stuff is nothing special but he has about 20 guns that are really nice collectors IMO. He purchased some of them new over his 70 year life and some used, not ONE box or set of papers for any gun he has. NONE....he buys them, puts them in the safe and everything else goes. I have said save the stuff, he says hell no! LOL....
