Hitting the target with a Glock safe-action trigger is Glock's biggest shortcoming and Kimber's biggest plus. I don't specifically mention the original Colt, as I no longer have this flavor in my collection. I've carried a Colt 1911 for may miles and many years. The originals needed throated, ejector port relieved, new sights, stippling to get a decent grip, change in main spring housing (if you were an arched or flat fan,take you pick), extended slide release, modified grip frame, if it bit you, etc. A Kimber comes with all the necessary items. Glock's suffer from non-adjustable frames, except extensive plastic surgery, and a huge grip frame. The plastic sights are as durable as metal and don't come standard as night sights. With a little maintenance and lubrication they work well, so do 1911s. One other shortcoming of Glock, they are relatively fragile if used to slap someone up side of the head. An ASP does nicely for this purpose, but neither is recommended.
