I have one, I like it a lot. It didnt start out as love though. It had to go back to Kimber for a fail to feed. They Reamed the chamber, polished the feed ramp , polished the breech face, tuned the extractor and tuned the slide stop... It runs like a sewing machine now and I cannot say enough good things about Kimber. You will love your new weapon! Wheres your pictures?

I have to agree. BUT I haven't seen one in person yet. If I find one and I take a like'n to it I might have to bring it home. |

Got mine today. Added a M6X. VERY nice.
eta: $1100 at a gun show. Shoots good. The M6X works very well. adds a little weight so follow ups are decent. Shoots much better than I do of course. Finding a holster is going to be a bear with the light though. The M6X is a bit larger than the M6. I have a holster coming from blade tech (without light) for now. A pouch for the M6X would be nice for evening carry. Any ideas folks

What is a good price for one of these ?
I would love one - Back when I was in the corps the MC armorers still put our together. These are supposed to be AWESOME...... |

Got the regular Warrior. There is more black {think: asphalt jungle} where I live than sand, or dusty colors.

TLE RL II with a paint job? I started out not liking them but they're growing on me fast.

The shop close by my office has one and I have to admit, it's growing on me.
For those guys that have had them for awhile now, do you regret getting them? Do you wish you got a regular Warrior instead? |

$1025 was the best internet deal I've found. Had a local FFL bring it in for me for $15. I've seen a few here who've done a bit better, but I think I did okay. Locally they were $1200.

i had to jump on this bandwagon, that dang pistola is too good lookin' to pass up
so i pulled out the plastic and grabbed one up this morning. looks like i'll be eating wish sandwiches for a while but i had to get a desert warrior while there was one on the shelf at the local gunshop. hope the weather is great tomorrow so i can punch some paper. i'll post some pic's later this week.

These look great!
My question is, are the lower frames polymer/plastic? I don't care if they are. The light mount grooves look cast/molded. I'm just curious... Johnny C! |

I have a regular Warrior. Got it as soon as they came out, never had one problem shooting Remington 230 and Winchester 230 ball. I only have about 350 rounds though it since I have been shooting other recent projects. Shot it today during lunch and shot a nice little ¾” (center to center) 5 shot group at 10 yards with WWB 230gr.

FWIW,
I have a G17 set-up w/ M6 light I tote in a Safariland 6004 gunbucket, and with a tad of tension adjustment on the 6004 my Warrior w/M6 rides just as well in the same bucket as the Glock 17. Go figure--!  INCIRLIK |
