Cobra picture

Corrected entry: In the kitchen scene when Cobra cleans his gun, he pulls out the clip and puts it on the table. If you look closely, you will notice that the tip of the bullets are blue. This indicates blanks. What a cop - goes up against bad guys without real ammunition.

Correction: That's assuming the "blue tip" bullets weren't Glaser Safety Slugs, a high performance defense-oriented specialty ammunition. They also have a blue tip which keeps the liquid teflon and 12 shot inside the bullet. Early Glaser Safety Slugs (around the time when the film was made) were made with a flatter tip than they are now. Considering the kinds of SWAT style police work Cobra did, it's likely he'd use Glaser Safety Slug ammunition.
