There’s no jiggling or movement that could be problematic like you see with certain gun maker’s revolvers. Overall, fitment of parts in the model I saw at NRA is very good. The cylinder on the Colt King Cobra Target swings open smoothly and closes firmly. The gun ships from the factory with an adjustable rear sight and fiber optic front sight.

The gun has Hogue® overmolded rubber grips. Learning to run a variety of platforms makes us all far better shooters. Think kids don’t need to learn to run revolvers? I’d disagree. It isn’t overly heavy and the grips are soft and comfy as Colt’s usually are, so it would work really well for most young shooters. What this gun really might be is the perfect introductory revolver for kids interested in running this platform instead of semi-autos. The King Cobra Target sports Hogue overmolded rubber grips, so it’s comfortable to hold, and of course its overall weight mitigates felt recoil (which would be negligible anyway).
