The Kimber K6S Texas Edition delivers premium revolver performance in a compact .357 Magnum platform designed for serious shooters who demand reliability and precision. This brushed stainless steel revolver combines traditional double-action/single-action operation with modern manufacturing precision for consistent accuracy and dependable function.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard compact revolvers, the K6S features a unique 6-shot cylinder in a frame size typically limited to 5 rounds. The brushed stainless steel construction provides superior corrosion resistance compared to blued finishes, while the exposed hammer design allows for precise single-action shooting when accuracy matters most. The bonded ivory grips offer enhanced control and distinctive aesthetics that set this Texas Edition apart from standard models.

- 6-shot cylinder capacity in compact frame - more firepower than typical 5-shot competitors

Field testing demonstrates consistent accuracy at defensive distances, with the 2-inch barrel providing adequate velocity for effective .357 Magnum performance. The stainless steel construction maintains function in humid conditions and coastal environments where standard carbon steel revolvers show wear. Law enforcement officers appreciate the 6-shot capacity advantage, while competitive shooters value the single-action precision for target work.
