Colt Cobra: Original Grips?
« on: October 28, 2006, 01:28:14 PM »
Hi all.

Just picked up another old gun from Grandpa - a Colt Cobra .38 spl which appears to have a 2" barrel.  The factory grips are not present.  Any idea where I can purchase the factory grips for the gun?  I assume it was a wood set with the colt emblem.

Thanks  8)

I just got this one a couple of months ago from my father in law and I assume these are the original grips. I have seen one or two on GunsAmerica and they looked like this. Sorry for the poor picture, but just did it on the spur of the moment.

Thanks for the info!!!!  I guess I do have the original grips.  Was under the impression they'd include the Colt emblem.  Guess not.  Mine's blued, but same gun.  Cooooooool  ;)

I have a Detective Special with the same grips. I also have a very early Cobra that has the small wooden grips with the silver emblem. I think the later guns are the ones without the emblem.
