Many small-frame revolvers stayed stuck at five rounds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Diamondback went a different direction. The SDR series uses a small-frame footprint but fits six rounds. That alone sets it apart. These revolvers also focus on ease of use, corrosion resistance, and modern carry needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_6968-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"A silver colored revolver lays in a man's open hand. \" class=\"wp-image-229206\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The SDR-A is new this year. It&#8217;s an aluminum-framed SDR with a steel barrel and cylinder. This gun also features an internal hammer.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>All SDR models use a push-button cylinder release. A second button at the rear lets users remove the crane and cylinder as a unit. Cleaning becomes fast and simple. Push it back in, and you\u2019re ready to shoot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fiber-optic sights come standard. The frames accept J-frame grips, which opens the door to plenty of aftermarket options. Diamondback ships them with its own boot-style Bantam grip for easy carry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_6958-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"A black revolver lays on a white marble table, facing away from us. \" class=\"wp-image-229203\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Now Diamondback has a bobbed SDR.

These models ship with a slightly larger grip than the standard Bantam. They still remain J-frame compatible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/arc-magazines-thril-shot-show-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"diamondback-sdr-revolver-line-shot-show-2026\" title=\"Diamondback Expands SDR Revolver Line -- SHOT Show 2026\">Thril Debuts New ARC Mags \u2014 SHOT Show 2026<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/IMG_6954-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"Looking down on a revolver that lays on its side.\" class=\"wp-image-229201\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">This bobbed SDR also features the boot cut grip and a sharp two-tone finish.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-specifications-bobbed-hammer-sdr-357-magnum\">Specifications: Bobbed Hammer SDR (.357 Magnum)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Caliber: <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/taurus-66-combat-a-modern-fighting-revolver\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"diamondback-sdr-revolver-line-shot-show-2026\" title=\"Diamondback Expands SDR Revolver Line -- SHOT Show 2026\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"2753\">.357 Magnum<\/a> \/ .38 Special +P<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Capacity: 6 rounds<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/long-range-contender-savage-model-10-ashbury-precision-chassis-rifle-full-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"diamondback-sdr-revolver-line-shot-show-2026\" title=\"Diamondback Expands SDR Revolver Line -- SHOT Show 2026\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"2752\">Barrel length<\/a>: 2 inches<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Frame material: Stainless steel<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Finish options: Black nitride, glass bead<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hammer: Bobbed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sights: Fiber optic front<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Grip: Extended boot-style grip<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Action: Double-action \/ single-action<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>J-frame grip compatible<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-sdr-a-lightweight-aluminum-option\">SDR-A: Lightweight Aluminum Option<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The SDR-A adds an aluminum frame to the lineup.
