I take negative reviews on the internet with a huge chunk of rock salt. There is no such thing as a reliable Kimber 1911. If you listen to the naysayers, a Kimber will self-destruct in a couple of hundred rounds. My 2 Kimber pistols are as close to 100% reliable as my Glock 23 is. I also have a Kimber Montana 8400 in .300 WSM. It is a sub-moa rifle, the trigger, fit and finish is first rate.
I shot a friends Glock 42 and I liked it a lot. There were no stoppages at all and I was using my handloads. If I did not already own a S&W .380 Bodyguard, I would probably buy a Glock 42. I still may!
