Kimber Revolver

[KDUBCR250]

I have had a couple Colts that I would definitely put up to par with my Kimbers, but there again I think Colts are overpriced as well. Nothing wrong with being a fan boy. Best 1911 I own is a Wilson and I definitely over payed for that lol. To each their own.

To me it looks like a Chiapa Rhino except the barrel is on top where it should be. I think I will just stick to S&W and Ruger for my revolver needs.

I wouldn't consider a wilson overpriced either, for the amount of gun you're getting... If anything they're the best bang for the buck in top end 1911s.

Meh, all that wait for nothing...

S&W FTW

Smith & Ruger?

Looks like a J frame in disguise.

Shiney. I kind of like it. If it has a slicked up 8-10 lb DAO trigger then they have a sellable product. Otherwise no reason not to buy a Smith.

The internal lock is plenty of reason not to buy a Smith. At least, not a new one.

Never had a problem with the internal lock myself, but I understand the sentiment. Dad was visiting with a respected revolver expert who witnesses 10s if not 100s of thousands of rounds a year go down range. He claims he has never seen the internal lock fail. Once he witnessed somebody only partially unlocking the gun. So the internal lock engagement issues seems to be a topic of Internet lore. Besides Smith offers revolvers without locks.

The Kimber kind of interests me. 23 oz, 10 lb trigger, what appears to be sights and 6 round capacity.

And it sounds like Grant Cunningham was "intimately" involved with the design... which bodes well.

Someone at Kimber has really good taste.
Their guns are purty!
Does it come in leopard spots?

A six-shot 642 wannabe in 357? I could see it selling well. I'm not sold on 357 out of a snubby, but I'd still be interested in it.

When I see a .357 snubby my first thought is the gun will have no problem handling any 38 special I want to throw at it. Otherwise I have no reason to shoot magnum loads.

No reason to trade my 640.

I haven't owned a Kimber product yet and this revolver doesn't change my opinion on it. I will stick to S&W or Ruger for smallish revolvers.

Been googling this thing while waiting on the computer at work. $899 MSRP. Ouch! But supposedly made by Manurhin. That sounds cool. If the trigger is top notch and construction is heavy duty it might be worth the price.

I like the way it looks. Now if only it came in .45 GAP......
