The S&W 66 has the advantage of already being in production and we know what to expect quality-wise. I own an older 66 snub, lately it's been my most carried gun. I would want to wait at least a year before buying the K6S or Cobra.
I'm happy to see Colt making another DA revolver, but I don't think it compares well (on paper) to the K6S. I'll wait to test them both but so far the K6S is lighter, thinner, has a better rear sight, has no sharp edges and of course is chambered for .357 magnum. I don't care if it costs $200 more, I am willing to pay for quality.
I hope Kimber decides to make a version of the K6S with a 3" barrel and exposed hammer.
