The Colt King Cobra Carry .357 Magnum is a compact six-shot revolver with a 2-inch barrel and a blued finish (Colt part no. KCOBRA-BB2BB-S). The short barrel makes it a natural choice for concealed carry, while the .357 Magnum chambering gives you a serious cartridge in a small frame. It runs as a double-action/single-action revolver, so you can fire it with a long trigger pull or cock the hammer for a lighter single-action shot. A transfer bar mechanism adds a measure of safety when the revolver is carried loaded.

Key Specifications

• The chambering is .357 Magnum, a classic revolver cartridge with a long record in personal defense.
• The barrel is 2 inches, short enough to keep the revolver compact and easy to conceal.
• Capacity is 6 rounds, a standard cylinder count for a .357 Magnum revolver.
• The action is double-action/single-action, so you can fire with a long pull or cock the hammer first.
• The finish is blued steel, a traditional look that protects the metal when it is kept lightly oiled.
• The safety system is a transfer bar mechanism, which blocks the firing pin from the hammer unless the trigger is pulled.

Frequently Asked Questions

What caliber is the King Cobra Carry? This King Cobra Carry is chambered in .357 Magnum, with a 2-inch barrel and a six-round cylinder.

Is it double action or single action? It is a double-action/single-action revolver, so every shot can be fired with a full trigger pull, or you can cock the hammer for a single-action shot.

What does a transfer bar do? A transfer bar sits between the hammer and the firing pin and only lets the hammer reach the firing pin when the trigger is pulled, which makes a revolver safer to carry fully loaded.
