| Great little revolver! Very nice trigger. Well made. And I am no fan of Kimner either. Someone ought to send a K6 to the company calling itself s&w. Show them how to make a nice revolver again. Regards 18DAI

| I own one and absolutely love it. Better than S&W imo. What I really like are the rear sights and the trigger. Fantastic revolver. |

| I'll also say that I'm not Kimber fan. But, that K6 really looks fantastic, something I would likely carry, if I were looking for a CC revolver.

| Not a Kimber fan but based on the K6’s I have handled....damn if that blind squirrel didn’t find a nut. . Nice little wheelgun. I personally think it will be to heavy for pocket carry but I have been impressed with the few I have handled. One caveat. The trigger is very good but...different. Not sure how I can explain it. It just felt different from other triggers to me. All in all I say go for it.

| I have one, and at some point plan to buy a 3" model. More than any other revolver I've fired, the Kimber hurts to shoot. Airweights don't bother me, and snubbies with boot grips don't bother me, but the kimber, for reasons I don't really understand, flat-out hurts to shoot with full house rounds.
Fit and finish is good, trigger is great. It's a six shot revolver the size of a j-frame, with a trigger that feels like a striker fired auto loader. They make great pocket pistols, snag free, and they function well. I don't much care for kimber, but the revolvers are okay. |

| One of the few j-frame size revolvers that comes with or can be equipped with low-light sights. Mine has tritium front and rear, with a drift-adjustable rear. Not bad for a snub nose revolver. |

| My 2” DCS made my J-frame expendable & SP101 an alternate. Can comfortably use 38 +P accurately. Great little wheelgun!

| It rides in the same DeSantis pocket holster that my S&W 642 uses. No problem. |

| To add to my original post, as other have mentioned, I’m not a kimber fan...and I still live my k6s |

| It weighs too much to carry comfortably in my pocket quote: Originally posted by 4x5: Those of you who own a K6S, is it easy to carry in a pocket?

Supposedly this issue has been addressed with the new dasa versions but they haven’t applied that change to the enclosed hammer version. I am going to hold off until they do.
Snap caps are cheap insurance for ANY dry firing. Hell I use them in my Glocks.
