A buddy of mine took a Springfield with him to Iraq as a recon Marine. I think he said it was the pre cursor to what became the Springfielf Operator. I have also read articles that some Marine SOCOM units are issued Kimbers. Check out their Desert Warrior.
I have a Kimber Pro Carry which is their plane Jane 4 inch and it is a good gun. Tell your son to be loud and do good things. He will be fine as long as he keeps a positive mental attitude.
