5. The 24B and 20B cost more than a Kimber, a true NULA is much more.

I'm a Kimber fan, but you'll see a bunch of Kimber Montana's for sale once the Forbes rifles are readily available in all stainless.


Isn't there some sort of issue with the stainless action Forbes not being completely stainless? I thought I remembered reading something about it, but can't seem to find anything through a search.
Hadn't heard that. However, their switch to a 2pos/2 fuction safety is not to my liking.
