Saw a Cobra Firearms Patriot at the NRA convention, very attractive price. Does anyone have any experience with these weapons?
Do question reliability at at that price.
Thanks

06shooter,

Welcome to the Forum.

What sort of gun are you talking about? Is it a semi-auto or revolver? What was the price? Once we have more details, we can give a better reply.

Again, welcome to this site.

I've got one. I got it for a truck gun. Great for what it's made for. At 7 yards, I shoot a 4 to 6 inch group. It is NOT a target gun, with a 12 pound trigger. But with site alighment and a quick pull of the trigger, it will do the job. They say it is hardball only, but cast roundnose works. Mine will not strip the first round off a fully loaded mag, by hand. But will when firing. And it does use 1911 mags. I got mine on "auction arms" for a total of $274, after my dealers payment. Shooters in my "Group" want to shoot it twice. First time to feel how it shoots, and a second because it couldn't have been that bad. My kimber super target, it's not. But a cheap truck gun that shoots every time the trigger is pulled, it is. Don't look for any safties other than the trigger and your brain. And yes, it is always loaded, 1+6.

Remember, .45 cast and hardball never gets smaller than .45...

At under 300 bucks you actually get almost what you pay for. Do a little work on it to smooth it up and it's a shooter...but just barely. As I said...JMHO. With that and about a buck you can get a cup of coffee. Dad gum it do be raining...again. We have had a years worth in the last 7 days. About 4 inches...and for where I live that is a years worth. Buy a good used 45 for a bit more and have a real gun.
