Well, there goes my foot right into my mouth.
For better or worse I can see myself buying the mongoose. I make no apologies. But this shit right here:
This is 'smoking bath salts out of an improvised crack pipe made from a light bulb and some aluminum foil' levels of fuckery. There's just no other way this happened.

Sadly enough, I might buy this.
Yuk.
Yuk.
(Had to say it twice because I got a message stating that saying it once was too short to post.)
I could see myself enjoying the 3" tubed mongoose, as the specs tick most of my boxes. With fewer good smiths working on wheelies, long waits for the ones that do, and S&W fully committed to primarily supporting new guns with holes in the side, this Nighthawk could be an option. If Colt were to start making Pythons again and having them tuned via custom shop, they'd be in the same ballpark. Not everyone wants another Ruger tuned by Gemini (not that I'd turn my nose up at one myself, of course).
I don't even drive $3500 trucks so I don't think I'll be buying a $3500 revolver.
More seriously, are these made by Korth, made by Nighthawk on Korth-provided tooling, a new Korth design made by Nighthawk simply "under license" or something else?
Well, you could buy five or six of them for the price of one korth so....I'll stick to my Rugers, thanks.
Nope. I'd buy it. Seriously.For better or worse I can see myself buying the mongoose. I make no apologies. But this shit right here:

I don't drive a $3500 truck, either. But I'll still buy a $3500 revolver. Wouldn't be the first time the cost of the gear I was carrying was more than double what my car costs. I used to drive around in a $1250 Mustang with pocket knife that costs what the car did. By the time I added my wrist watch, gun, flashlight, custom holsters, etc. I was well over the double the cost of the car...
Indeed, inquiring minds do want to know the answer to this.
That is true, but you'll still be the only gun hipster on your block with a Korth. And sometimes that's all that matters.
