One of these with the spur taken off appeals to me more than the enclosed-hammer versions.

I have to hand it to Kimber: nobody can accuse them of half-assing their revolver line. These will probably end up being popular additions.
I was just shooting my 3" K6 yesterday. So far, so good; it’s been a fun little wheelie.

If I could fit a full sized CT grip with the green laser I would be all over it. Unfortunately, not so much.
Nice. They do a DLC version and I’ll be all over that 3” gun.
@Sidheshooter - I forget are these distinct grip frame or was Kimber smart and stole the round butt k-frame profile?
I have no desire for an external hammer on a revolver. But that 3" sure looks cool.

Distinct and very limited choices, main reason I am fixing to sell mine...
Ah, right I remember this now. Some folks apparently have adapted J-Frame grips, but it's a pretty ugly conversion.
Now, that said I found a guy recently who will laser scan your favorite grips and then convert them to a new gun pattern (if he has a scan of the pattern). You end up with 3D printed, plastic, grips (or a wood-matrix composite), which kind of sucks. But in theory this means you could scan grips you like for a Smith or Colt and adapt them to the K6. Before I get off all into that though, I'm going to see if this guy can scan the Fitz D-Frame grips I have and reproduce them with any degree of accuracy (I'm guessing yes, since laser scans and 3D prints tend to have generally high fidelity).
Right now the K6 is: Altamont, VZ, crimson trace, or whatever Kimber provides OEM from those vendors. Or, at least that’s the way it was when I bought my 3" earlier this summer. I’d expect the likes of Hogue, et al., to be coming up to speed pretty quick.

Do you think Safariland will ever make speed loaders for the K6?
