For quite a while now I have been researching revolvers chambered in .357 Magnum for use as a self-defense gun for my wife. Things required are that it has to be relatively compact, constructed from s/s, not have a S&W type "trigger lock" capability and have a six shot capacity. The gun has to handle well for her and the da trigger pull be as light and as smooth as possible. I have narrowed our choices down to the Colt and Kimber revolvers.
Our lgs has both revolvers in stock; the Cobra selling for $850.00 and the Kimber (with a $50.00 rebate that expires on the 28th of this month) selling for $780.00. The plan is for my wife to handle each revolver and to test the da trigger pull to see if she has a strong preference for either one way or another.
So, I'm wondering if anyone in the forum has had some experience with either one of these revolvers (or, best case scenario, both of them) that might have some advice or suggestions for us before we commit to one monetarily. Thanks.
