So Kimber is coming out with a revolver I guess. Going to be turned loose at SHOT. Can't wait to see this.

I didn't believe you, but the internet confirms. Coming to SHOT Show 2016. Looks like they're marketing to the concealed carry crowd so i doubt I'll be interested.

Well I got an email from Kimber about it so I just figured they wouldn't bother with emails if it weren't true. Bigbore, they aren't giving up any details.

The teaser photo shows a slim six shot cylinder. Definitely has a design closer to a k-frame than a GP100, in heft. Someone suggested a colt clone, and that makes sense considering the premium they're commanding. Still, can't say that's what I'm hoping for.

Sean is probably getting pretty close to the ten ring. I'd have to agree if the pic of the cylinder is what is going on the revolver.

Thanks for the link!
I don't hate this! It's got some clunky lines, but it's not ugly. I like the recessed chambers and cylinder that fills the window. Not sure about the sights, but it looks like it could be swapped out. Looking forward to reading reviews tomorrow afternoon.
I'm looking forward to where they go with this chassis. Could be some good gun built off this. I'll look hard when it's got a 4" barrel and a full grip!

MSRP of 899! SP101: 719 GP100: 799 S&W: around 750 Seems a bit high...
