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?
Just saying and not being sour grapes

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.

Post by: MP123 on January 22, 2016, 10:20:36 AM: 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.

Post by: huntandjeep on January 22, 2016, 12:18:08 PM: I agree the $900 is a bit high . Just thought it was cool that Kimber is introducing a revolver.

Post by: MP123 on January 22, 2016, 12:20:49 PM: For the price it ought to at least have a titanium cylinder. Looks like it's all stainless.
