Just placed an order…. Korth NSX 44 magnum 7.5”. Can’t wait to run this one and see how it compares to a much older one I own.

Good looking pistol Chris.

I changed directions slightly. Got the Korth mongoose….didn’t really like all the rails on the Nsx

Just going to make the trijicon SRO mount to replace the rear sight.

Really cool looking
Let us get a shooting update
Did you still go with 44?

Dan

**HandgunhuntingAfield** · 02-09-2023, 04:22 PM

Yes 44

**Stumpkiller** · 02-09-2023, 10:03 PM

I have to say the looks of the Mongoose appeal more to me.

Any Korth is a heck of a machine!

Range day coming soon!

VERY nice!! Thier wheelguns are awesome. I had the opportunity to handle some at the NRAAM a few years back, the quality is impressive, to say the least.

**pacecars** · 02-16-2023, 12:22 AM

I have never put my hands on one. Yours looks great. Is the lever by the hammer the cylinder release? Does the Korth incorporate any type of safety?

**HandgunhuntingAfield** · 02-16-2023, 12:42 AM

Cyl release is the lever by the hammer

has a hammer block like a smith.

front lock up shown in the pic is probably the stoutest method out there with the “lug” for lack of better words. Locks up in the rear as well like most revolvers

machining is way above the others.

trigger is fully adjustable for single, double, and the wall/pause in double.

hopefully I’ll get in the shop and make the red dot mount this week.

**HandgunhuntingAfield** · 02-16-2023, 01:15 AM

Just to add…..just from handling. The new ones actually look improved over the older ones. Little finer machining and a few improvements.

**Rooterpig** · 02-17-2023, 08:06 AM

Looking forward to you shooting it.

**HandgunhuntingAfield** · 02-17-2023, 10:14 AM

I shot it yesterday. Just a test fire. Did 3 6 shot groups free hand at 25 yards. Averaging just over 1.5”. Now to make the red dot mount….

and the wood grips look pretty….but they are slick as snot….hogue custom shop will have me a set in about 30 days…..

**Rooterpig** · 02-17-2023, 11:37 AM

Off to a great start Chris.

**piki3e** · 02-17-2023, 08:14 PM

Awesome revolver and great start!

Now just waiting on Houge’s custom shop…..

**tomme boy** · 02-19-2023, 05:43 AM

What dot are you using. I need to get one because my eyes are not that great anymore. There are more of these micro dots out there than regular red dots.

**HandgunhuntingAfield** · 02-19-2023, 10:28 AM

Trijicon SRO.

**HandgunhuntingAfield** · 02-19-2023, 01:39 PM

I’d say it works reasonably well. 50 yards prone.

Now just waiting on grips….the factory ones are pretty but way too slick. Hogue custom shop to the rescue.
