Wanted For Airsoft: The Korth Super Sport GTS Revolver

Korth Super Sport GTS Revolver

If an airsoft manufacturer ever inquires about my preferred revolver design for production, I would immediately suggest the Korth Super Sport GTS. This design, which is distributed by Nighthawk Custom in the U.S., is one I would love to see in an airsoft version. I am curious if RWA, the licensee of Nighthawk Custom designs for airsoft, would consider this. If they do, they can count on my purchase.

The Korth Super Sport GTS is a 6” .357 magnum revolver that is sure to attract attention wherever it appears. This 6-round revolver is constructed from fully machined parts made from the highest quality billet steel. It features four pre-set adjustments on the front sight for setting at predetermined distances and a fully adjustable rear sight. The roller trigger, providing an unparalleled trigger feel in both single and double action, is one of the most impressive features of this pistol. A Lothar Walther cold-forged polygonal barrel ensures extreme accuracy and performance. The Super Sport's unique interchangeable cylinder upgrade allows for a quick switch from the standard .357 Magnum/.38 Special cylinder to 9mm.

The revolver's triple-lock quick-detach cylinder has a six-round capacity and is cut for moon clips. The cold hammer forged 6″ barrel is made of 416R stainless steel and features polygonal riflings. It comes equipped with Picatinny rails for mounting red-dot sights, lasers, or other desired accessories. This model comes standard with finger-grooved high-grade Turkish Walnut grips. The front sight plate has four pre-set positions for quick front sight height adjustment. The Korth Super Sport GTS revolver measures 11.6″ in length and weighs 2.91 lbs. The vented barrel casing features a Picatinny rail at the base, which can be used to mount additional weight bars made of aluminum and steel, or a combination of a weight bar and a muzzle rise compensator.

The Super Sport GTS includes an exceptional performance kit to enhance the shooting experience. This kit includes two weight bars, one steel and one aluminum, allowing for fine-tuning of the revolver's performance. A weight bar and compensator set helps further reduce muzzle rise during shooting. The kit also includes a pair of extra front sights for easy customization of the revolver. The front sight can be pre-adjusted in four different configurations at predetermined distances using either fiber optic or classic golden pearl; this is in addition to the traditional rear sight adjustable for elevation and windage, and potentially a red dot that can be easily installed on the Picatinny rail. A target rear sight and a .357 Magnum speedloader for quick reloads are also included.

This revolver carries a substantial price tag, listed at US$$6,999, which may give potential buyers pause. However, for those with disposable income who appreciate the design, it is an easy decision. I am curious about how much an airsoft version would cost, and I hope it will not deplete my bank account if it becomes a reality.
