Despite its outward similarity to the [[Colt Python]], the '''Colt King Cobra''' design is based upon that of an earlier Colt, the [[Colt Trooper MK V]], improved with the addition of a heavier-duty barrel, full barrel length cylinder ejection rod protection shroud, target grips, better finishes and  thicker solid (non-vented) rib on top of the barrel.
