Korth Sport Revolver

[S&W357]

I just saw this rev. for sale --they want $5000 to $7000- i never even heard about these $5000 rev. What would make a rev. cost that much ?

Production inefficiencies, which is another way of saying each Korth is hand-made, hand-fitted, custom-tested, and so on. It takes days and weeks of individual attention to convert the steel blanks to the finished product, as opposed to the minutes involved in turning out the robot-produced assembly-line guns that issue from mechanized factories

Thanks - How come they don't Advertise ? Never saw that name in any of my gun magazine...???

Have you ever saw one or held one or even shot one ? I just posted -What's your next Rev. for 2014. I'm looking for my next rev. when i realize i have all what i need. That's not good because i enjoy looking for a gun to buy, but $5000.00 is not going to do it. It would take me 5 years to save that kind of money. I can't find any use one.

Can't imagine that they shoot that much better then a Smith or a Colt. I guess someone would have to appreciate what went in to the Korth they bought knowing the time spent fitting the gun parts together. Owning a Purdy doesn't mean you'll hunt or shoot clays any better. It could be the pride of ownership or a rich mans game. There was a post in the lounge abt Korths, search it. There were a couple Korth owners that responded. Never figured I'd own a Registered Magnum, seemed like too much in one gun. I almost had my second one but turned it down at 1500 shipped. Larry
