Are these Cokes?

[markeb]

Well, I just made an offer and it was accepted on eBay. I'm not an expert by any means, but do these look like Cokes? Fingers crossed.

Look like "cokes" to me.

 

[SmithNut]

To me they appear to be K frame grips, so no......

 

[markeb]

I took a chance because they were listed as N frame. I guess I'll find out when they get here. Fingers crossed.

They could be, it's pretty hard to see the inside rear "ledge" clearly. I hope I'm wrong as they are nice looking targets.

They are Cokes and appear to still be N frame to me......99.9 % on that.

Glad you got them buddy.

At $145 I think you're going to be very happy. Congrats.

You saw them.

 

[RKmesa]

They sure look like a very nice set of Cokes to me.

Congrats!!!

 

[tlawler]

I think they are

Comparing them to a set that I have, I'd say yes.

Nice job, OP!

You can uncross your fingers and pat yourself on the back!
Those ARE Cokes.

I still don't have the "eye" for spotting cokes, probably because I don't have any. To me, they could be Cokes, Dr. Peppers or even Sprites.....
Nice purchase though.

You have done well young Padawan....

See that smile at the top
The huge checkered field below it.
How that field extends lower at the bottom..
Now you do.

That happened to me on Ebay, a beautiful set of diamond targets came in and close but no cigar. Fit a K frame perfectly but not an N. Sent them back and the seller was really embarrassed.

If I had it to do over again, I would have kept them. The K frame diamond targets are getting expensive as well (not like N cokes, which are in "ludicrous' territory) and they completely change the feel and look of the 1950's K frames. I really like them.

I'm finding the easiest way to buy cokes is to buy a gun with them already installed.

First set I ever bought, maybe 25 years ago, came on a 1950 Target 45 (pre-26). The older gentleman selling the gun apologized that they were not the correct stocks for the gun, which was $425. At the time I didn't know what they were. Now they've been on a 4 screw 44 Magnum for a long time.

I'm impressed that you know what a padawan is Even more impressive is that I do too (considering my old-man credentials).

Yet even that way they are getting harder to find. Can't tell you how disappointing it is to see them changed out to mis-matched magnas or newer no diamond types on original 1950's guns for sale.
