Kimber Mfg, Inc 3400021CA .357 Magnum 2" 6-Round Stainless Revolver

The Kimber Mfg, Inc 3400021CA .357 Magnum 2" 6-Round Stainless Revolver is purpose-built for concealed carry, backup duty, and personal defense in compact-frame applications where reliability and stopping power cannot be compromised. Designed for law enforcement professionals and armed civilians who demand a defensive revolver that fits seamlessly into ankle, pocket, or appendix carry systems, this Kimber delivers the ballistic performance of a magnum cartridge in a firearm small enough for deep concealment. The fixed barrel and compact profile make it an ideal choice for close-quarters defensive scenarios where a semi-automatic platform may be impractical.

Built on a stainless steel frame and cylinder, this revolver resists corrosion and maintains reliability in demanding environments—critical for duty carry or vehicle storage. The 2-inch barrel balances velocity retention with shootability; .357 Magnum ammunition achieves approximately 1,200–1,300 feet per second from this length, generating superior penetration and energy transfer compared to shorter-barrel alternatives. The six-round capacity provides adequate firepower for most defensive engagements while keeping the overall footprint minimal; the double-action-only trigger system (standard on Kimber's defensive revolver line) ensures consistent trigger press geometry and eliminates manual safety operation under stress.

Backup officers, plainclothes detectives, and civilian carriers benefit most from this configuration; the stainless construction and compact dimensions (7.2 × 2.3 × 10.5 inches) allow carry in vehicles, purses, and off-duty rigs without printing or fatigue. The revolver pairs exceptionally well with quality .357 Magnum loads—both full-power magnum rounds for duty use and reduced .38 Special ammunition for training or lighter recoil management. No rail mounts or optic compatibility is required; the fixed sights and inherent reliability of revolver design make this platform immediately deployable in defensive scenarios where action-on-demand performance is non-negotiable.
