Colt brought the King Cobra back in 2019, and the Carry version might be the most practical of the bunch. You get six rounds of .357 Magnum in a 2-inch stainless steel snub, which is one more round than most of the compact wheelguns it competes against. The bobbed hammer and double action only trigger mean there is nothing to catch on a cover garment or pocket lining when you need it out in a hurry. It is a purpose-built carry revolver from a company that has been making them longer than just about anyone.
At around 26 ounces, this is an all-steel gun, and that weight works in your favor. Full-power .357 loads that would be punishing in an airweight are manageable here, and .38 Special or +P practice ammo feels downright pleasant. The Hogue Overmolded rubber grip wraps the backstrap and gives your hand real purchase, with finger grooves that lock your grip in the same spot every time. Colt's LL2 linear leaf mainspring gives the double action pull a smooth, consistent feel that stands out against comparable snub-nose revolvers, and it shows up in how quickly you can put accurate shots on target.
The brass bead front sight paired with a trench-style rear keeps the sight picture simple and fast, exactly what you want on a defensive revolver at realistic distances. The brushed stainless finish shrugs off holster wear and sweat, so this is a gun you can carry daily without babying it. At 7 inches overall, it rides well inside the waistband and conceals under a t-shirt with a decent holster.
For anyone who wants revolver reliability with real stopping power in a carry-friendly size, the King Cobra Carry checks the boxes. It shoots .38 Special for affordable range time, carries .357 Magnum for serious work, and wears the Colt name with the fit and finish to back it up.
Yes. Like any revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, it also runs .38 Special and .38 Special +P without any modification. Most owners practice with cheaper, softer-shooting .38s and load .357 Magnum for carry, which is a smart way to keep range time affordable.
No, this model (KCOBRA-SB2BB) has a bobbed hammer and is double action only. That is intentional for a carry gun, since there is no spur to snag on clothing during the draw. If you want a spurred hammer with single action capability, Colt makes the KCOBRA-SB2BB-S variant.
It is noticeably more manageable than you would expect from a snub. The all-steel frame puts the weight around 26 ounces, and the Hogue rubber grip covers the backstrap to cushion your hand. Full-house magnums still have some bark, but it is far more comfortable than firing them through an alloy-frame lightweight.
The Carry model trims the barrel to 2 inches and bobs the hammer for a snag-free, concealment-focused setup, while the standard King Cobra wears a 3-inch barrel with a traditional spurred hammer. Both share the same stainless steel frame, six-round .357 Magnum cylinder, and Hogue grips. The Carry is simply the version optimized for riding in a holster all day.
