Absolutely. I would not tolerate such shabbiness in a rifle costing three grand.
...............Agree with you here! For $3k, no rifle should have the issues that I`m reading about here on this thread. With all the components involved, maybe a big percentage of that money might be wrapped up in that beautiful wood?

The Caprivi is one beautiful rifle. But apparently underneath that beauty, linger the possiblities of a few issues that need to be addressed by Kimber, which may have been overlooked by Boddington in his initial review.

I`ll take an uglier and far lesser expensive rifle that`s more accurate, more reliable, that has no issues.
