Problem solved, I sold the Colt today. I have a feeling that I will regret it, but I do have the baby smith left for consolation.
The Smith & Wesson will outlast that little pony.
I was dry firing my little Colt Cobra just the other day and I noticed that every now and then (about every 20 snaps or so) it would kinda bind up. I would let off the trigger, thumb cock the hammer just enough to advance the cylinder, and then it would cycle thru about another coupla dozen times or so before it would do it again.
I probly need to trade it for a Smith, but not another Colt.
