The Colt Kodiak .44 Magnum with a 6-inch barrel is a stainless steel double-action/single-action revolver built around a big-bore hunting cartridge (Colt part no. KODIAK-SP6RTS). Colt pairs the six-round cylinder with a Hogue overmolded rubber grip and an adjustable rear sight, so the revolver can be tuned to the load you shoot. The 6-inch length gives a longer sight radius than the 4.25-inch Kodiak while staying a manageable size for a big-bore sidearm. It is a natural fit for hunters, backcountry carry and anyone who wants a stainless .44 Magnum.
