Item Description: I love this gun and have no problem keeping it. That said, I could use some cash at the moment so I figured I would post it.

Very very clean and low round count Ed Brown Kobra. This gun is without doubt the finest shooting pistol I've ever laid my hands on (and ive had some nice guns). It has an Ed Brown ambi safety and a 10-8 rear sight which were both installed by a gunsmith and I have the original night sights and safety for it. It comes with the bag and docs it had from the factory and a couple of magazines.

I also have a nearly new Milt Sparks vm2 holster I'm cordovan.

The gun does have a couple of very small scratches. I can send close up pics to interested parties. They are very small and you will likely notice them.

Every wine probably tastes the same too, huh?
I wouldn't know, I don't drink. But I'm sure the Ed Brown is a well assembled gun with quality parts, just strikes me as odd how just about 99% of the 1911 clones look similar. Namely this one looks like a Springfield. Looking at a wine bottle and saying it looks great is different than saying it tastes great. Just about every bottle of wine looks the same. But I never questioned the contents of what's inside...

Not knocking your gun or anything. Just my opinion on aesthetics.
 
Oh I know. I'm just giving ya hard time..

Personally what drew me to this gun aesthetically was the snake scale detail work on the gun, as well on the contrast between the gen lll coating and the grips compared to the nitron finish on a lot of guns. Also, the 10-8 rear sight looks really neat to me. But the value of this gun is certainly in the performance. I am a decent shot, but no professional marksman and I can thread a hole at 10 yards without strain. If I wasn't in need to cash, I'd never consider letting this one go.

I hear you. They all do look similar. If there were better pics, you'd be able to see several little aesthetic differences like the blended beaver tail, etc. Basically hand fitted with tighter tolerances, which "justifies" the higher price tag than a production line Springer.

I will certainly have to take some better pictures this evening. It really is a pretty gun!
