The "mid 50s to early 70s" Cobra had a half-moon sight and an free-standing ejector rod, just like the Detective Special it was derived from. (Look at the Cobra Jack Ruby used to shoot Lee Harvey Oswald.) The ramp and the enclosed ejector rod were put on all fixed-sight D-frames (DS, Cobra, and Agent) in the early to mid 70s.
To be confident and competent enough with a rifle to be able to hit anything I can see in a Jovian Thunderbolt kind of way.
To be able to defend myself with a handgun.
To perhaps harvest some tasty venison with either a rifle or a shotgun, any skin or antler is just a nice bonus, here.
And, if necessary: To Defend the Ramparts of Democracy from a Level 4 Zombie Outbreak or against the Jacobin, Rampaging, Godless, Red-Commie Hordes (or their modern equivalent.)
"You never select a shotgun as your primary anti-zombie firearm. It's great for onesy twosey, but zombies travel in hordes. The reload time is onerous, and the ammo, while effective, is heavy and bulky and short ranged."

I think the D-frame with the ramp sight and the enclosed ejector rod came out around 1974. If so, not the early 60s.
Colt Cobra. Mid 50s to early 70s
I'm pretty sure that's a Photoshop of an old Gleem toothpaste advertisement.

It's really good, but I don't think it's real.
Sean, you are correct. It's a joke.
