    Kimber K6xs, aluminum 38spl for 2022

    I just found this on Reddit after my buddy @revolvergeek mentioned it to me... It was posted 4 months ago from Kimber's 2022 catalog so I assume it will be revealed at SHOT.
    I can't be the only one very interested in a 16oz, 6 round, 38spl, K6 option.

    I don’t remember, was there anything in particular that ended your K6 experiment?

    Too bad it's still mandatory to conceal. Like an LCR, and for the same reasons.

    The Frame Blurb there states it has a slightly smaller frame so that may not work out.

    Hoping for a .327Magnum and a 3" version too...

    Why does it have crappy gutter sights instead of the good sights the .357 versions have?

    That's the one thing that also bugged me as well... Cost savings is my guess but it's kind of a let down as Kimber has never shyed away from high MSRP's.
    They could have at least serated the rear sight to make it less shiny and easier to see.

    I guess Taurus 856UL was too hot of a market segment for them to ignore!

    I am looking forward to hearing @Totem Polar range report so I can be enabled. Again.
