Colt made many jaws drop when they announced the re-introduction of double-action revolvers in January 2017. That initial offering of a Cobra was a bit of a departure from the double-action revolvers they used to produce with its matte finish and rubber grip. The 2nd iteration of the Colt Cobra came this last January with the unveiling of the Night Cobra. This specialized revolver with more concealed carry-motivated traits was an even more modern take on the classic name. Now we are seeing the 3rd installment in this series of revolvers with the Bright Cobra.

The phrasing for this new model Cobra is extremely appropriate because we are seeing a return to the bright, high polish stainless steel finish that so many collectors chase. The Bright Cobra has a more traditional sight picture as well. Some of the more simple features that embody the new Bright Cobra are outlined below.

  • .38 Special + P
  • Bright, High Polish Stainless Steel Finish
  • Wood Grips w/ Colt Medallion Logo
  • Brass Bead Front Sight
  • Frame Trench Rear Sight
  • 6 Round Cylinder
  • MSRP $1,299

To all fans of old-school wheelguns, like myself and my team, this revolver will truly make you nostalgic for the Pythons, Diamondbacks, and Cobras we used to know. Its bright, high-polish stainless steel finish is absolutely eye-catching and returns a lot of the luster people used to associate with a Colt double-action revolver. Another key piece that pushes the Bright Cobra in a great direction director is the wood grip with a Colt medallion logo in the center. This was always an iconic centerpiece to Colt revolvers and it is great to see it return.

The price point might make some people cringe, but Colt revolvers have never been known to be “economy handguns.” They are built to be aesthetically gorgeous and highly tuned pieces of craftsmanship. These are very strong words coming from a writer who loves double-action revolvers, I understand. I can only hope that once consumers get them in their hands and people start reviewing them that they completely live up to those praising words. New Colt Bright Cobra .38 SPL+P comes to Light

At this time, we only have this one side profile image of the Bright Cobra to share with you as well as this specification listing from Colt. Also, this revolver is not yet listed on Colt’s website. Without being able to necessarily handle one yet, seeing the appearance and giving Colt an assumed level of quality, are you a buyer at $1,299?… Is this a good direction for Colt?… Let us know what you think in the comments below!

I would like to thank customer support rep Josh for taking care of my order and getting me the parts before the first three-gun competition of the season. I will definitely recommend the other gun club members to the GlockStore site for all there three-gun supplies.

Keep up the great work!

Hey, just a thanks for all the helpful people you have there. I just had a chat with Robert B (I think that's right) and he was very helpful. The videos you post on installations are priceless they let guys like me do all my own work.
Keep up the good work this company has really set the bar.

I ordered a SS recoil spring for my G20 . I was only charged 7 bucks for shipping and received it in 2 days with $100 insurance on the package. 2 days! Wow, I live in Rhode island (lol). You guys are the best! I just wanted to say thanks.
I am a customer for life!!!

I would just like to say thanks for great service and speedy delivery. I ordered new pins for my Glock and unfortunately they were on back order. I got confirmation today that they shipped! I was surprised because they were on back order. No other store has ever shipped an item that fast that was on back order. I will never order from another store again. Y'all are awesome.
Thank you!

I'm 48 and have been an avid shooter for almost 40 years including probably over a million small and medium caliber rounds in the military. It took me 47 years to get a Glock and I've bought two now. I have really enjoyed using your videos to make various upgrades on my own. It's become a nice little hobby for me. Thanks for the fun!

I have been to your store quite a few times and have purchased guns and upgrades. Your people are the best. They are knowledgeable, customer oriented, and easy to work with. I have gone to other shops and there, you are just another number. I compare the fully loaded strap store to the Apple Store and they are very similar. You are developing a great culture and great employees. I have worked with the store manager and with Nick (a customer rep). Both terrific! I will be coming back.
Just bought a Glock 19 and will pick it up 6/10. Keep up the good work!

I have been a Glock carrier for many years now. I have been in Law Enforcement for almost 6 years and have carried the same Glock 22 since day 1. Through your amazing store I have been able to make modifications to my Glock with aftermarket parts. I look forward to future purchases with the online store.

Just wanted to tell you guys how much I've been enjoying the standard Pyramid Trigger! First, I put one on my G43 - liked it so much I put one on my G19. So crisp… so smooth… so accurate. This is the trigger that should come standard on all Glocks. Keep up the good work!
