Time to add a new snub nose revolver to the picture thread.
Yesterday, I picked up the new Kimber K6S. Fit and finish is excellent. The trigger pull is super smooth with no stacking. Not sure how Kimber achieved this because the internals look like a S&W J frame. This is a 6 shot .38 / .357 in stainless steel. It weighs only 23 ounces empty. It’s about the same size as a Colt D frame (Detective Special, Cobra, Agent) and fits in D frame holsters reasonably well, not perfectly. The trigger guard is a different shape, more oval.
My only real complaint, if you can call it a complaint, is that the rubber grip is a bit too “square.” Something more rounded would feel better. A gold bead or fiber optic front sight would be appropriate at this price point.
Had to have the Kimber because I collect / carry snub nose revolvers. It’s just sort of my thing. Could not pass it up. That said, I would probably not pay the premium just to have a carry revolver with all the Smith & Wesson J frame, K frame, Colt D frame, and small Ruger options out there but for my ridiculous snubbie habit.
