Payment Types Accepted: checks, cashiers/bank check, money order Description: UNUSUAL AND EXTREMELY RARE VARIATION COBRA LIGHTWEIGHT REVOLVER WITH 3" BARREL AND IN CALIBER .32 NEW POLICE, MADE IN 1967, IN ORIGINAL NUMBERED BOX WITH ALL PAPERS! The first series Cobra was made from 1950-1972. The standard model was a .38 Special caliber, blued finish with 2” barrel. Anything else is seldom seen. According to the excellent new book SEVEN SERPENTS, THE HISTORY OF COLT’S SNAKE GUNS by Gurney Brown, the author rates rarity of features from 1 (standard) to 5 (extremely rare). The .32 New Police chambering (which is the same as the .32 S&W Long, but loaded with a flat nose lead slug) is rated as a “4” and the three inch barrel also rates a “4” on the rarity scale. I actually don’t recall seeing another like this before. The gun is in near new condition with only a slight handling mark here or there in the soft anodized aluminum black finish etc. The wood grain box is numbered to the gun and is like new (!) with a full label showing the caliber and barrel length etc. It also contains the original hang tag, warranty card, Colt booklets etc. Truly a remarkable find especially with the original box etc. SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes Manufacturer: COLT Model: COBRA Serial Number: 241XXX LW Caliber Info: .32 N.P.
