Though it is FUNNY!..............

WTF??? Larry, this is the first time that you decided to pick a fight with me since Rick allowed you back on the fire (a pitty [bleep] if I ever did see one) and this time for no [bleep] reason whatsovever. I stayed the [bleep] out of your and Brad's pissing match because I don't have a dog in the fight.

Truth be known, the old feedramp angle on my 84 is the only thing I DIDN'T have a problem with.


But then what the [bleep] do I know... All the Kimber top dogs live right down the road from my singlewide, and it is a small town....

I just grew up in the Flathead, the area with more real gunsmiths per capita than anywhere else in the world....

I've shot custom rifles built on M98s that cost more than you make in a year from gunsmiths like D'Arcy, and Lee and not just once.


I'm amazed at what a sad little [bleep] gnome you really are underneath it all. I got nothing more to say to you. You can taunt me to your hearts content, and get no more replies from me I got better [bleep] to do with my time than listening to your ballistic masturbation.

Seriously, go [bleep] yourself. And eat a bag of dicks for desert

You taunt yourself,which is the funny part.

Good luck on whining things better...though you've the knack!................

I want to see more manufacturers windowing mag boxes, and mastering fundamental things of CRF bolt actions like making sure that when the bolt is closed, the ejector isn't tipping case heads down on the LH side in the unwindowed mag box. Oh, and things like case heads and shoulders need to be allowed to form equilateral triangles...

Instead IMO (god that takes balls to say IN MY OPINION, doesn't it?) Kimbers fix was to make the ramp shallower and put a new spring in the box that you could use for a spare in the back end of a Chevy half ton, should you break one towing a horse trailer. They COULD have put some money into tooling up for a new mag box like the OLD winchester 70's that has ribs beadrolled into the sides, thus eliminating the cartridges scrubbing against the side of the box, and allowing them to roll up smoothly.

Kimber doesnt own the market on this problem..... BTW.


People just bitch more when a thousand dollar rifle chokes.

Pretty easy to radius the ejector's underside.

Just sayin'..............

Easy enough:

And to simplify things for those not wanting to read the entire thread here are another couple EXACT quotes from BS:






The XM177e2 moderator wasn't the only example given that refutes your statements.

Sad thing is that most of the time muzzle brakes and/or anything with holes DO make guns louder, just not ALWAYS. But in your petty arrogance you couldn't admit that there are exceptions to the rule. Instead you go on with your typical petty insults ad nauseum.


But again to the point, BS HAS been demonstated to be wrong and exactly as the earlier poster comments he'll never admit it.


Of the more than a dozen Kimbers I've had some certainly fed better than others OTB. I haven't personally had any real problems but I typically tune all mine up anyway whether they were feeding OK or not OTB so I might have worked right past a rifle that didn't feed right without really noticing..............................DJ

Larry, you missed the point....


How did a fundamental ESCAPE the CAD-CAM engineers in the first place?

It also causes "Premature Ejection" which can't be fixed with pills.

Let me give you a list of other rifle manufacturers that make/made a CRF action where in stock trim, the ejector stops at the back end of the mag box.....



All of them... All through history...

[/quote].............Your priceless personality which "shooter4570" described to a tee, and my above post which gave you a complimentary 21 laugh salute, has nothing to do with whether I owned a Kimber or not............I simply agreed with him.....

[/quote]If you only could BEGIN to comprehend how stupid you are...you'd punch yourself in the face,with a fist full of your lady fingers.

Laffin!..............

[/quote]..................I`d much rather give you the opportunty to personally punch me in the face. As I recall, I gave you that chance. But! Cowards are as cowards go! You happen to exemplify the definition of a true coward.

Your verbal pie hole is much louder and bigger than any bark, bite, or courage that you could ever have.

From the cheap seats, it's funny that one guy can get a crowd into such a lather, and so easily.

I radiused/shortened the ejector,to prevent dive of 223AI's heads and to allow a greater COAL to exit the ejection port.

Coupled with a Weatherby-esque scallop,up front.................

I didn't say that it was possible,that you could punch yourself in the face hard enough to hurt yourself...................

Here's another fundamental that you have issues with (including Kimber, their Rifle Specialist showed me this trick)

That trigger is an outsourced part... Both halves of the housing have the pin holes punched from the same side. (instead of from the inside out)

Undo that screw that holds the trigger to the reciever (its North and West of where the screwdriver is)

Push the sear all the way down, and drift out the pin that captures it (its South and West of the hole where you can see your sear engagement.

Now, make sure it rotates freely all the way 180 degrees around from where it was (don't lose your spring) If it doesn't, remove the leftover burr from the manufacturing process.



This is one of the reasons that Kimbers (and other light rifles) get a rap for being tough to shoot well and in severe cases it can be a source for light strikes in guns that have correct headspace and firing pin protrusion. It can cause a Variable Locktime condition that will drive you nuts.... (Yes, you can move a rifle a lot between when the sear breaks and it goes boomity boom) Kimbers fix for this was to contact Wolff and provide a +P firing pin spring.... Larry's right, Beancounters and Suits were the ones that [bleep] that up

Hoping BS gets royalties...

Didn't shoot any frames of the receiver,less firecontrol system...but shoulda,if only for conversation.

Mebbe tomorrow,before paint................

Again... Kimber isn't the only company with this problem....

They're just the only one that sells 1000 dollar rifles.
