Kimber has always been a company known for their 1911 style handguns, but that changed in 2017 with the release of the first Kimber K6s revolver. The goal was to make a Colt Detective Special for the 21st century and they without a doubt succeeded in that endeavor. All Kimber K6s revolvers are chambered for .357 Magnum and there for will accepted .38 Special and .38 Special +P cartridges as well -- but what really set's the Kimber K6s apart from its contemporaries like the Ruger SP101 or the many .357 S&W J Frames available is the 6 round cylinder. The K6s' cylinder is actually smaller than its competitors but holds one more cartridge giving you more capacity in a smaller package.
The newest Kimber K6s features a double action/single action configuration that takes the Kimber's famously short and smooth trigger pull to the next level. The double action trigger pull is still between 9.5-10 lbs. but the K6s now features and exposed hammer for single action shooting. The single action trigger pull is a crisp 3.25-4.25 lbs. for precise shooting. The 4" Target model features an extended three finger grips for superior comfort and a target adjustable rear sight for pinpoint accuracy with any load.
