Sooooo, had my new model Colt Cobra out over the weekend. Was teaching a couple of people to shoot and brought the Cobra as an example of a small concealable revolver.
I've shot this gun many times mind you without a hiccup but on Saturday there were light strikes and initially I blamed it on the mag tech ammo. After watching one person shoot, I noticed the hammer seemed to bounce after a shot and I called time out.
After unloading the gun, the timing, trigger, and cylinder were all non functional. They would work, but the timing and feel was off. Almost no pressure on them. Something was amiss for sure.
Got home with it and while I didn't pull the side plate off, I took the grips off and an internal part had fallen into the leaf spring. Something broke in the action for sure.....
I'll give Colt a call Monday.
Not happy of course, but we'll see how the fix is. The gun has less than 200 rounds through it so pretty surprised to see it crap out like this.
I'll update as it works through the process.
