Clark, they are Kimber's. I don't mean to pick on them, but they just AIN'T all they are cracked up to me IN MY OPINION and yes, I own a nice Kimber.
Dink. I feel for you. Like Sarge says, buy a Colt made pistol. Then send it one of the 45 auto pistol smiths of your choice and have them go through it for you. I used to have Jim Clark over in Louisana do mine, but Jim is dead now and I don't know who the modern day hot rock pistol smiths are any more. Or heck, see if Sarge will do that for you. He is a lot younger than I am and can still see. I would offer to do it, but I am 74 and scheduled for cataract eye surgery later this summer. I can't see well enough to do good close work anymore. I do it for myself, but I don't want to do it for anyone else.
Ditto
Especially the new models.
Blue Book of guns does not like Kimber's. Their values fall fast.
For the average fella,if you have a Kimber for Conceal carry, just don't go out and sell it. Just put it through the motions. A lot. Make sure you can count on it. Cost cutting measures tend to surface over time.
