I bought a Cobra Big bore derringer for $160 from a dealer.  The firearm would not fire out of the box.  There was no manual either so I went online to Cobra to download a manual and troubleshoot.  The manuals were not available for download so I sent them an email requesting it.  Over 2 weeks later I recieved a bad photocopy of a manual that was virtually unreadable.  There were no troubleshooting items in the manual for the issue so I attempted to contact Cobra per their instructions over the course of a month with no response.  There is no one at the number they provide and I left messages but no one returned my calls to their number, fax or multiple email addresses.  After no response I filed a report with the BBB of Utah and their contact efforts also led to no response.  The really frustrating part of this is two-fold, firstly in my state you have to buy a permit to purchase a handgun and turn in that permiit with the purchase so I am also out that money.  Additionally I purchased the gun at a gun show and traded a very nice gun I had restored at a loss for it + cash.  The dealer at the show is 5 hours away from me and can do nothing to help suggesting it is a manufacturers issue which I agree with.  I highly suspect these folks are out of business so hopefully no one else spends their money with them and gets the same treatment as I.  I know own a highly regulated govt registered paperweight.
