MEH, at $900.00 + it's out of my reach,
I prefer a bobbed hammer.
Not crazy about 357mag on that small of a frame (ouch)
With that short of a barrel why a drift rear sight?

I was wondering who would post this up first after the mass e-mailing.

It's a cool looking gun, a little different then nor, and I got nothing against Kimber. It's just that if I want a small revolver to carry I am going to go with a proven item, A S&W mdl 36, Taurus 85, Colt Detective,  a Ruger LCR or a Charter Bulldog for a whole lot less and use the rest to buy ammo to become proficient.

It's a nice looking gun, but for the money I'd get a SP101

Some people aren't worried about the money. I think they are Kimber's target demographic. :chuckle:

It looks Ok. But I'm not paying 900 dollars for it, I'll tell you that.

It's 6 rounds rather than 5 like most snubbies.  Might be nice to have that extra shot if you needed it but it's got to make the cylinder larger and tougher to conceal.  I think I'll stick with my J-frame Smith.

I agree that driftable rear sights (or any sight really) is pretty silly on a gun like that.

I guess that name costs a lot of money. Nice gun, but... :yike:

I agree the $900 is a bit high . Just thought it was cool that Kimber is introducing a revolver.

For the price it ought to at least have a titanium cylinder.  Looks like it's all stainless.
