The K6s DA/SA adds a hammer and single action to Kimber’s quality revolver.
Kimber makes a fine hammerless revolver, but this year they’ve modified their K6s to include a double-action/single-action trigger. It comes with a 3-inch or 2-inch barrel and a 6-shot cylinder. The gun is all steel and it looks terrific. It’s got a recessed cylinder so it works with their speedloader. But it’s simple design also makes it shoot like a dream.
-
- The 6-shot cylinder is recessed and works with their speedloaders, which are simple to use.
-
- A nice big button releases the cylinder.
-
- K6s is chambered for .357 Mag.
Trigger
The trigger is just 9.5-10.5 pounds for double-action and 3.25-4.25 pounds for single-action. That’s pretty light, and the trigger is pre-smithed for a crisp break. What’s more, it’s a non-stacking trigger so it maintains the same weight all the way through the pull. I shot it at the range, and it was really enjoyable and easy to hit targets.

Grip and Sights
