Anyone seen the KIMBER revolver???

[Captain America]

The trigger guard looks awful small for my full sized trigger finger, grip is tiny too but that will be easy to change at some point. I have an LCR and an SP101 so I'll probably hold the Kimber but will never buy one.

Here is a screen shot in case it disappears again.

No thanks.. I'll stick to my Ruger GP-100.

I'm glad to see it.

 

[Fox Mike]

I am sure Jeff Quinn will have a 'test drive' of it at some point. I'll hold my thoughts till I hear from him.

Why am I not excited???

 

[Dave P.]

I wonder if it will have a couple of prepaid return shipping
labels packed in the first 500-1000 production guns?
I know, you can tell I really like Kimber.

Kimber makes good stuff should be very nice kinda exited to see what the congered up.

This is it I could not open Kimbers page Guns& Ammo has this.

I hope it's as good as it looks. More gun makers and more guns is very good for us.
I see a handsome little revolver there. Can't wait to examine one.

That front sight looks like it will catch onto everything.

 

[skipper49]

It looks to be a nicely ramped sight. How's it going to "catch" on anything?
And also, the SP101 is not terrible to shoot .357's from, so assuming good grip design, I would expect this one to handle full power loads also. And while we certainly can't tell from a picture, this revolver SEEMS to have a well designed grip.
Let's wait and let a few folks get their hands on a few. As for me, after being at this thing for many(!) decades, GOOD new guns still excite me.

The front sight is ramped but the pic that I saw shows a jagged edge, not smooth.
Maybe the Guns & Ammo pic was poorly taken.

 

[skipper49]

It appears to be serrated(good), and also appears to be pinned, and therefore replaceable (excellent)!

Says it is all stainless and 23 ounces. That's not all that light compared to some of the Lightweight and Ultra Lightweight revolvers out there. I carried a S&W M296 in .44 Special for years and years, that one weighs 18.5 ounces.

I'm sure it will be a handful with a max .357 Magnum load but it has to be a heck of a lot easier to control than the S&W M340 Sc. 12 ounces. I will shoot those with .38 Specials but even one .357 Magnum with stock grips is no fun at all. Makes the web of your hand sting like somebody smacked it with a hammer.

Finally, there will be something other than a 1911 derivative that is 99.9998% the same as all the others on the back of American Rifleman!!

 

[sliclee]

Shame on you all, you chased it away, its hiding, shaking some where,what'd I do wrong,poor thing.
The what looked like that over sized rubber grip, under trigger guard, to make up.
Saves parts, no hammer, hardware, can't be better than my sp 101 357 with FP load.
Closest to mine was the smith LW $$$

 

[rob-c]

its not bad, but over priced for me

 

[k22fan]

There are darn few small snub noses that you can readily zero in and, after they become available, add night sights to. That is the only justification I can think of for paying the price of a long barreled big bore sporting revolver for this snub.

 

[Cholo]

Who knows what the OTD price will be. That 10# +/- trigger pull is a bummer compared to the LCR.
