Colts

It comes as no surprise that this October auction has a wide array of fantastic Colt handguns. In our one day sale, we are presenting about a dozen revolvers from the beloved Colt snake gun series. Colt Snakes guns are among one of the most popular Colt handgun collection lines of the 20th century.

Colt Viper Revolver

The first Colt snake gun we will take a look at is a highly collectible and scarcely produced model, the Colt Viper revolver. Based off the design and look of the Colt Cobra revolver, the only true difference between the guns is the barrel length. The Colt Cobra has a 2” barrel and the Viper has a 4”. This particular Viper revolver was made in 1977 and was sold in Alabama on March 29, 1978. Colt Viper Revolvers were only made in 1977, making its production numbers especially low at about 4,000 in total.

Colt Cobra Revolver

If you read our blog published a few weeks ago about the Colt Detective Special, you know that the Colt Cobra was a gun made in a similar design and function to the Detective Special. The small arm was originally produced from 1950 to 1981 and then had a resurgence in 2017. The new Cobra is still in production today and has a nice modern look. We have both original and modern versions of the Cobra available in our October sale.

Colt King Cobra Revolver

Upgrading to the next level of Colt revolver firepower, we present to you two good condition Colt King Cobra revolvers. Chambered in the popular .357 magnum, this medium frame 6” barrel hand-gun is the real McCoy. Appearing cosmetically to be similar to the Colt Cobra, the actual function of the King Cobra is similar to that of Colt Trooper MK V. Just like the Cobra, the King Cobra had several different production eras with the first starting in 1986 and running until 1992. In 1994 the second issue of the King Cobra started and was manufactured until 1998. During the 2019 SHOT Show, Colt unveiled its new King Cobra revolver with a 3” barrel. The snake guns are slow inching their way back into the market both exciting and irritating Colt fanatics.

Colt Diamondback 38 Revolver

The Colt Diamondback is essentially a pocket version of a Colt Python revolver. Colt Firearms decided to use the popularity of the Python to ramp up sales for the smaller, more concealable Diamondback. In today’s market, you can buy a Colt Diamondback at a much more achievable price point than a Python making it a good option for Python fans on a budget. We have two Diamondback options available this October

Those are just a few various Colt firearms we have available in October. Browse through the catalog now to see what else we have in store for Colt enthusiast.
