Where would one who does not have such a talent find grips like that?

Hey guys, I am ready to move on to a new pistol, have wanted a 1911 for awhile and your photos have convinced me that the Warrior is the pistol for me.

What is the going rate for these nowadays?  I have found prices around the net, but due to sites not being updated, I don't know if they truly represent the market for this pistol at the moment.

You are the Warrior buffs, what should I aim for regarding the price?  What is the lowest this model has been seen at?!

I got mine out the door for about $1100, tax and 3 Wilson 47d mags. You can find them for under a grand easy. I could have paid less, but I wanted the pistol THAT DAY and my dealer had 2 in the glass.

I've really enjoyed my Warrior thus far. My only complaint is my hammer has started to rust where it is bare metal. I'm very good about cleaning my guns and have never had rust before. So it baffles me that I have even a little bit.

I just put a USED Warrior on layaway.  Im so excited I can't wait to pay it off.  It was $900 and the finish was about 97%.  I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

I guess mine is the only one that gets used.



Too bad I can't shoot it to it's potential. I know I'm missing here, but I thought it was a cool picture. Look at all the dust that .45 acp throws around. Like 3 times as much as my 226 was.

So many of your Kimbers look NIB (safe queens?)
- some have much holster wear like mine. <loved>.

My Wilson Combat Extended mags stick out like that. I put some black self adhesive tape in the part below the mag well stop to keep them from reflecting light on my duty belt. Im thinking of having the lower portion duracoated as the tape wears.

Do you think dura coat will advere to the stainless steel well?

I have the CTLG but I need to order the bob tail safety for the Warrior.  I had them on my other Kimber but switched them to the Warrior.  I''m going to change all the small parts to stainless and just keep the slide and frame blue.

5000+ rounds (I dont' keep exact count) and no breakage or abnormal wear.  MIM isn't a bad technology, but quality is key, just like everything else.

From a looks standpoint, I gotta admit, I do like the Novak style sights more


No 1911 expert here, but it looks like a similiar build, couldn't you swap them out and then be perfectly happy? I could be wrong here.

Hey now! Mine looks new but she goes everywhere with me. I just don't use a kydex or leather holster and try to keep the finish as nice as possible... She is absolutely not a safe queen!
