*Ping* Professor Squantos.
Kimbers seem like very premium hardware to me, but I have heard some criticism just lately, something about the frame, perhaps....so not owning one, I defer to the curator of our gun room.
If he ain't already tried to blow it up from the inside, or accelerate wear by heavy use, it must be a prototype. If he doesn't already own 3 of them, it's probably not worth owning. If it's a .45, you've come to the right place. When The Professor takes the stage, professionally....no matter what he is issued, his sightless M1911 stays close to his heart, ready to protect the Boss.
Hi, Muttly, fuente:
Kimbers are very high-end, though they possess outstanding Ergonomics.
I'll stll stick with my 1999 Colt Commander in .45 ACP. Slightly smaller than a 1911A-1. No Tritium or silly bells and whistles to get in the way. The only addition has been an extended slide release.
It hits low and to the left, as most .45s do. With some adaptation and compensation, I can hit tight groupings all day long.
The only problem I've encountered was with a batch of 1960s era Mexian .45 ammo bought in bulk. One stovepipe and one bad primer.
Other than that: Superb performance.
Jack.
