Kimbers are a premium price pistol but are a bit hit or miss in the reliability dept out of the box.

Kimbers are built real tight where as the design of the 1911 favors it being somewhat loose. My Colt rattles and shoots 2" groups @ 25 yards.

I was offered a Kimber at a decent price about a month ago and passed. To be honest I'm not a 1911 fan by any means.

 

[Ghost1958]

I like 1911 style pistos but lacking the funds for a Colt .I likely would go for a Ruger of a Rock Island .

That's just me though.

I own two Kimbers a 4" and 5" and both have been execelent, tight accurate and good looking guns.

 

[Pasquanel]

Nothing wrong with the Rock Island or the Rugers both quality guns at decent prices.

I have the SR1911 in 45 acp. It is comfortable to shoot, absorbs recoil and very accurate.
