Looking at a kimber solo. I have read a lot of tests and reviews,
it seems that you either love it with no issues or you hate it
with failure to load and failure to eject. Has Kimber resolved
these problems? I like the size,style, and that it is a double
action. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Seriously, buy anything but. Mine was so tight as to be painful to rack the slide.
And PICKY about ammo.
I sold it and got a CW9 for a replacement.
Other may have a different experience.

Had mine for about a month then it went down the road. As Terry said, picky about ammo and not a fun gun to shoot. And, as SR said there are better pocket 9mm out there and cheaper too.

Get a CW9 and don't look back.
