When the new stealth arrives, put in in that big safe of yours...and neither one of you will see it for years.

Yes Sir. You know what they say... Two guns are better than one gun with 2 magazines.

WS6, After seeing your photos, you would think I was playing with the United States Military!!

CNO53,
I love those grips on your Kimber! I'm guessing Not Stock?
Where did you get them?

Hello Mark, Thanks, I purchased them from Wicked Grips. They are made from "Desert Ironwood". Evidently the wood is very hard to come by (several months waiting list). Below is a link to their site they do excellent work and have some very nice and unique grips.
Thanks,
Neal

P.S. I'll sell you these if your interested.

Very nice back up piece. It is similar to my SlimHawg. I love those grips. I am a sucker for cool grips.

I have been in the revolver mood lately (that is when I am not carrying y Seecamp) so this has been my carry piece. It might end up as a back up when my R9s arrives.

calilw:

First of all, welcome to the Forum and congratulations on that beauty from the S&W Performance Center!  8)

Now . . . let's see . . . as for carrying it concealed -- only two options occur to me:

1. Get one of the Performance Center's holsters at this link and plan to make a rain poncho a permanent part of your wardrobe --

or

2. Shove it down the inside of one pants leg and walk with a cane.   ;)

Again, welcome, and congratulations on one fine revolver!
