The manufacturer
Korth is a German firearms manufactory based in Lollar near Giessen, known worldwide for its revolvers. The former railway engineer Willi Korth founded the company in Ratzeburg in 1954. From the mid-1960s he developed the revolver that made the Korth name famous. Martin Rothmann has run the company since 2008; Korth has been based in Lollar since 2009.
The revolvers are built in small series. The frame is drop-forged and then machined on CNC machines. Almost all parts are turned or milled from solid stock; no sintered parts are used. The revolvers have cold-hammered precision barrels and a DLC coating. According to the manufacturer, many hours of handwork go into each gun. The 25 employees bring experience from the production of precision parts for the aerospace, automotive and defence industries.
All current revolvers share the same technical principle: a double- and single-action trigger with high-speed hammer, a mainspring adjustable from the outside, exchangeable trigger rollers for the trigger characteristic and the classic cylinder release at the rear left. The cylinder assembly can be removed from the frame by push button without tools. With a spare cylinder a revolver in .357 Magnum also becomes a revolver for .38 Special or 9 mm Luger.
The model lines
Korth builds three revolver lines: Super Sport, Ranger and Combat. The Super Sport comes as the GTA with a coloured barrel shroud and as the GTS; the Ranger line extends to the XLR in .460 S&W Magnum, the largest Korth.

Reviews
The trade press has tested and measured Korth models over the years. We have summarised a selection of the results here in our own words. The full reviews are linked:
Super Sport: the match revolver
all4shooters.com measured a trigger pull of 1,750 g in single action and 4,250 g in double action on the Super Sport in .357 Magnum. The cylinder gap was 0.1 mm. The best group was 20 mm with twelve rounds of .38 Special at 25 m; with the spare cylinder in 9 mm Luger it was 24 mm. In its verdict the editorial team rates workmanship and accuracy as very good and the price as justified. The 1400 version with aluminium barrel shroud stayed below the weight limit of the DSB disciplines at 1,390 g and achieved a group of 22 mm in the test. Super Sport review (German) · Super Sport 1400 review (German) · Video from IWA 2023: Super Sport GTS and Ranger in .460 S&W (all4shooters, German)
National Standard versus Smith & Wesson 686
In a comparison of two revolvers in .357 Magnum the Korth averaged 41 mm, the 686 49 mm; the best group of the Korth was 26 mm. Trigger pull was measured at 1,700 g in single action and around 4,200 g in double action. The review also mentions the absence of sintered parts and the push-button cylinder removal. The verdict sees the Korth as “just a bit better” in workmanship, action, equipment and accuracy; its resale value should also hold up better. National Standard vs M686 comparison (German)
PRS: the roller-locked pistol
The first report on the PRS in .45 ACP (German) describes the fixed barrel with roller lock, the grip frame milled from solid stock and around 6,500 rounds in one trade-fair day without any notable malfunction. In the test of the 9 mm Luger version a trigger pull of 1,090 g in single action was measured; workmanship, function and accuracy were “certainly worth the money”. Criticised were the single-sided safety and the laborious cleaning. PRS in 9 mm Luger review (German)
Ranger, NXS and NXR in the US press
The author at American Hunter calls the eight-shot NXS the most accurate revolver he has ever fired. The best group measured 0.9 inch at 50 yards; the single-action trigger pull was 1 lb 9 oz. Handguns achieved groups of 1.5 to 2 inches at 25 yards with the NXR in .44 Magnum and praises the 8.1 lb double-action trigger. all4shooters.com presents the Ranger with Lothar Walther barrel and Picatinny rails.

Spare cylinders and accessories
Korth revolvers in .357 Magnum can be converted to .38 Special or 9 mm Luger with a spare cylinder. For Combat NSC, Super Sport and Mongoose there are cylinders in 9 mm Luger without moon clips, for Combat NSC and the Ranger NX line with a moon clip cut. A cylinder in .38 Special is available for the Combat NSC and the Ranger 4 inch. The timing of the cylinder must be matched to the individual gun; ideally you order the spare cylinder together with the revolver. Alternatively Korth fits it to your revolver at the factory.
Korth accessories also include barrel weights, compensators, sights, front sights, front sight guards, speedloaders and grips. On request we inform you about prices and delivery times.

Frequently asked questions about Korth
Can I order Korth revolvers from you as a dealer outside Germany?
Yes. We supply dealers and importers within the European Union and worldwide, except embargoed countries. You receive an offer on an EXW basis (Incoterms 2020); we take care of the transfer or export licences on the German side and coordinate the import documents with you. Korth revolvers not in stock we order for you from the factory in Lollar.
How do I get a model that is not in stock?
We order the model you want with the chosen barrel length and equipment from the factory in Lollar and inform you about price and delivery date. Special editions such as the Matrix Edition we enquire about at Korth. Semi-custom and custom versions are possible too; we have already realised special requests together with Korth several times. The PRS pistol cannot be ordered for the foreseeable future.
How long does delivery take?
Within the EU, transfer licences are usually available within two working days; the goods then go by road or air freight, or you collect them from us. For export licences to countries outside the EU you should allow at least six weeks depending on the destination. For models ordered from the factory, the Korth delivery time is added; we tell you the expected date when you order.
Can I shoot 9 mm Luger with a Korth in .357 Magnum?
Yes, with the matching Korth spare cylinder. For Combat NSC and Super Sport there is even a version without moon clips, for the Ranger NX line one with moon clips. The timing of the cylinder must be matched to the gun; so ideally order it together with the revolver. Alternatively we send your Korth to the factory and have the spare cylinder fitted to your revolver.
Which Korth suits my discipline?
Combat, Ranger 4 inch, NXS 4 inch, NXA and Super Sport GTS stay below the usual weight limit of 1,500 g. Which version is permitted in your discipline depends on the rules of your federation. For dynamic disciplines the NXS and NXA with eight rounds and moon clips are an option. For disciplines above .38 the NXR in .44 Magnum and the XLR in .460 S&W Magnum come into consideration. The XLR is also suitable for super magnum disciplines.
