Never trust a man in a wheel chair...with dirty shoes.
I owned this rifle's twin from 1982 to 1985. They had the best wood and checkering of any Kimber models ever made.
The "S" designation stands for "Super Grade" not Safari. The model is well known amoungst Kimber collectors.
The rifle listed here was probably built in 1983-1984
Kimber was afraid Winchester would sue them for actually calling them "Super Grades" so they simply called them "S" models.
The stock design was patterned after the early Winchester m52 sporters which debuted in 1935. That stock design was also used on Winchesters model 70 Super Grades a few years later in 1937.
I had one of those with a quarter rib, checkered inlayed grip cap and butt plate NIB. I bought it from a collector in Odessa Texas in 1996. Mine had headspace issues.
Guess I learn something new every day. Old timer I bought some from called them safaris Beens they look like little African rifles. Thanks for your info.
