DefaultAhh...Kimber...

Now you've done it.

Before long you'll be selling or trading off the rest off the rest of your collection for more 1911's.

LOL - Welcome out of the cave and into the Light.

Once you have one, there is no way to stop them from growing and populating your safe.

You have got your hands on one hell of a good piece there. Taken care of, it will take care of you and yours for many years to come.

Now, let's see some range targets.

In my very limited knowledge assessment, I would Go with the RIA Tactical over the Taurus, I have a RIA and enjoy it, For the Money don't think you can go wrong. JMHO

Thanks!
She's been my security blanket for about 8 yrs now.
She's on her 2nd set of Wolf springs and I treated her to the Wilson mag's about 6 months ago...
She...treated...Damn, I sound like I'm dating this gun. Naw, I married her the day I brought her home.

Will take a swift pic this weekend.

The problem is now I want another! Thinking used, something to run in the truck. Any suggestions? there is a shop here that has some decent looking Ithacas but the cats here want about 800+ - would I be paying for nostalgia or are they worth that? seems at that rate I should dive into something new but

You guys are like drug dealers here... Try it - you'll like it! lol!

(helpful, well-advised and humorous drug dealers of course)
This may save you some money.

Yep

Just a mild case of holster wear around the leading edges of the slide, or as I call it, CHARACTER!
