It was almost exactly five years ago that I wrote my first gun review for GunsAmerica (gently wipes away a tear…). It was the Walther PPQ M2 5” pistol, which was just new to the market at that time. When the work was finished and the article and video were published, I asked Walther if I could send them a check instead of returning the gun. That pistol has been my go-to match gun ever since, and it has many thousands of rounds through it.

What a $4,800 Revolver Looks Like: The Super Sport from Korth
Published: February 20, 2019 { 35 comments }Korth revolvers come standard in .357 Magnum, but you can purchase a spare cylinder chambered in 9x19mm Parabellum.
