I've decided on getting a Kimber K6s 3" revolver. Those things are just beautiful. Anyways I've tracked down a DA/SA model with a hammer but as I may carry this sometimes, had been thinking about getting the hammerless model -- good luck finding one though, so it may be a while.
Most of the time it'll be a range gun, so most of this tilts in favor of the DA/SA model. Plus it has textured wood grips that I like.
So I guess the question is, how much of a problem (drawing, or digging into skin) is the hammer on a revolver? I've carried a DA/SA semi-auto but that hammer is kind of squared off and has never been a problem. The revolver hammers seem a little more "pokey."
Not much of an issue? Big issue? I would think that as long as there's at least a bit of a sweat shield on the IWB holster the hammer should be covered.
