KORTH revolver - initial range report/impressions

Korth and Python in the middle of the 3" 38/357 group:

Awesome! what is that beautiful blued Smith at about 4:00?

I think that's the Model 27 with 3-1/2" barrel.

I was looking at wrong pic orientation, I think.
Maybe the 3" old Model 36?

On second thought, it's probably the 13-3.

Here is one for the record book. Taran Tactical Sand Viper, only $11,000 used. Highest price preowned pistol I have ever seen advertised. Has me rather perplexed as its $7k new without an optic. Notice how small the owner's hand is in his pics. Tiny hand tiny d**k. Maybe he's trying to compensate. Or maybe Keanu Reeves shot a mag outa his pistol once.

new at Taran Tactical.

Seems like he may be trying to lever the 10 to 12 month wait time for a new one. You know, up-charge for the person who has to have it now!

Is that grip tape on the sand viper...

Sure looks like it. It is now marked SOLD. He had it on discount, $10k.

Finally got to the range and shot it. Decent groups at 10 yards with 125 gr 38+P JHP and some mild hand loaded 125 gr JHP 357 mags - but not great. About an inch or so low (more so for my son). I'll adjust sights and try again from the bench next trip. Action IS very nice. Easy to clean up with the pop out cylinder. Not overly impressed for 4 large. But my son likes it so I'll keep it.

I had one of my rugers reworked by gemini customs. Turned it into a nice piece. I would still like a korth though
