My COVID riddled brain is asking why a person would purchase a firearm with three main components Barrel, a(ction, buffer tube) and the barrel is the shortest of the three.
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

Yeah, I just don't get it either. Peg. You'd have to grip it by the mag well because there's no way your hand would fit on the fore end. Unless you were delivered prematurely and still wet behind the ears, that is. Maybe that's who's it's marketed toward, people who are still wet behind the ears.

Why indeed, Mike? That's million dollar question. You could get a 3" barrel with a 14" flash hider/compensator/muzzle brake pinned and welded to get to legal rifle length at about 16.5", but why on God's green Earth would anyone want to? Rock Island Armory makes Warthog sized .45 with a 3.10" barrel called the BBR Series 3.10. They say it's 4.55" tall and 3.10" long. Somebody screwed up. Gallery of Guns says 6.85" long, and my P10.45 is about 4.5" x 6.5" so that sounds right. But someone, I don't know who, would rather have a rifle length action and a stock with their 3" barrel .45.

The Kimber revolver looked good in all the pictures, and sounded good from the little bit I read. IIRC it's the same size a a J-frame with an extra round, but I could be wrong about that. I'd be more likely to buy a 4.2" stainless GP100, or that's what I thought when I could still afford to buy ammo. I probably wouldn't use a revolver for concealed carry and the GP100 could handle all the rounds I'd put through it for the rest of my life, no problem. I'm more the "Hey, did you see this?" guy, and not the, "I've got to have this." guy. I did carry my Dan Wesson concealed while hunting when I was granted a permit to carry concealed while hunting only. Now "anyone" can get a permit but, Michigan is the 4th most expensive state to get and maintain a permit in. And if you carry without a permit it's a 5-year felony offense. You can get less time for murdering someone than you can for carrying without a permit. Either way it costs too much.

I don't remember anyone talking about buying one of those. :)
