Yes, the new Cobra is very sexy, but...
25oz unloaded. The original Cobra was 15oz unloaded, the 642 is 15oz unloaded, the LCR is 13.5oz unloaded, the SP101 is 25-26oz. unloaded. Model 60 is 23.2oz. unloaded.
So really they've made a gun much closer to the SP101 or Model 60 than the original Cobra. I'll still probably buy one and it looks fantastic, but as a carry revolver that weight is a bit of a letdown.
