Surprisingly enough CS found that replicas of the original Cobra are much more popular than he ever imagined, and with his background and connection to the industry, it seemed a natural for him to get re-involved in the Cobra legend. So here you have it, a very authentically made replica made by none other than CS himself."

One of the side effects of this statement is that the person you just talked to will go away happy they stopped by.
Sorry, a little too much reverse snake-oil for me.
