Picked up a Colt King Cobra. Always wanted a Colt double action and was at the right place at the right time.

Fine looking Colt revolver, Willy. I've been looking for a nice, reasonably priced King Cobra for some time now. Still trying to "be in the right place at the right time". :)
 
Nice gun. I wonder if thats a Colt ultimate SS? I don't know how to tell the Colt bright vs bubba's polish apart. Someday maybe I will add this snake to my collection. I only got 2 snakes of 7 right now.
 
It does look like ultimate bright stainless to me, but I am no expert on this kind of "detail" with Colts. Hope you enjoy it!
 
Looking again I note the hammer seems to be less polished than the rest of the gun. This would indicate it's a standard gun thats been polished by a later owner. This is common with this fine gun. It takes away a bit from the originality but certainly doesn't affect it's superb shooting and handling qualities.
