Our Assessment: The Korth Nighthawk Custom Mongoose revolver is a masterpiece of firearm engineering, resulting from a collaboration between Germany’s Korth and America’s Nighthawk Custom. Known for their exceptional craftsmanship, both companies have combined their expertise to create a revolver that offers both precision and versatility. Built with meticulous attention to detail, the Mongoose is made from high-strength billet steel, ensuring durability and a flawless fit and finish. This revolver adheres to Nighthawk’s “one gun one gunsmith” ethos, in this case Johannes Hohlfeld. This revolver is designed for those who seek top-tier quality in both performance and aesthetics. One of the Mongoose’s most notable features is its dual-caliber capability. The revolver can shoot both .357 Magnum and 9mm rounds, thanks to an interchangeable cylinder system. This versatility allows shooters to switch between the powerful .357 Magnum for self-defense or hunting and the more economical 9mm for practice and general use. The 6-inch barrel further enhances the revolver’s accuracy and reduces recoil, making it ideal for precision shooting. The Mongoose is also praised for its absolutely phenomenal trigger and smooth action. The double-action/single-action trigger offers a crisp break and smooth pull, contributing to a superior shooting experience. The revolver’s ergonomics are carefully designed for comfort and control, with options for high-quality wood and synthetic grips. Its balance and weight distribution make it easy to handle, despite its size, and its design combines modern functionality with classic aesthetics. In conclusion, the Korth Nighthawk Custom 6″ .357/9mm Mongoose revolver is a premium firearm that exemplifies the best of both German and American craftsmanship. Its dual-caliber functionality, exceptional build quality, and refined trigger make it a standout choice for those who demand excellence in a revolver. While it comes with a premium price tag, the Mongoose delivers on every front, making it a 100% worthy investment for enthusiasts and collectors who appreciate top-tier firearms.
