The Korth Mongoose Carry Special is a six-shot revolver chambered in .357 Magnum with a 2.75-inch barrel. It's the most compact .357 Magnum revolver Korth has offered.
The Mongoose Carry Special is the shortest .357 Magnum revolver Korth has offered, and Nighthawk Custom imports it into the United States. It takes everything people like about the Mongoose and puts it in a size you can actually carry.
The barrel is 2.75 inches long and hammer forged from 416R steel. The revolver holds six rounds of .357 Magnum or .38 Special, and it fires in both single and double action. Like other Korth revolvers, it uses a roller trigger system, which is a big part of why these guns have the reputation they do.
There's also a practical bonus. Korth offers an interchangeable 9mm cylinder as an option, so you can switch to 9mm ammunition without changing guns. The cylinder swings wide for easy reloads, and the cylinder release is Korth's newer style.
The Carry Special wears a concealed carry Hogue grip, with wood grips offered as an option. The rear sight is fully adjustable, and the front sight has removable side panels. The whole revolver is finished in black DLC.
It measures 7.5 inches long, 5.9 inches tall and 1.54 inches wide, and it weighs 33 ounces. That weight is what makes a short magnum pleasant to shoot. It's a solid, dense little revolver that stays planted when you fire it.
If you've wanted a Korth but need something for daily carry, this is the model built for that job. It's German revolver making in a size that fits under a jacket. Add the optional 9mm cylinder, and one small revolver can cover carry, practice and plinking.
