The Colt Kodiak Ported .44 Magnum Revolver is a six-shot stainless steel revolver with a 4.25-inch barrel and an unfluted cylinder (Colt part no. KODIAK-SP4RTS). Colt describes it with a ported barrel to reduce muzzle flip and recoil, which matters with .44 Magnum loads. A polished stainless finish, black Hogue overmolded grips and an adjustable rear sight give a sturdy, practical package. The 4.25-inch barrel is short enough to carry in the field and long enough to shoot well. This Colt Kodiak suits hunting backup and heavy-duty range use.
