Looks good, I've cast many a covetous glance at the CDP Kimbers. A friend of mine has one and it's a nice gun.

Nice. My next purchase will be a TLE/RL.

Welcome to Klub Kimber.

I don't have any hard facts.

I can't point to any personal experience.

But that external extractor/ejector I do not like.

Other than that she looks nice.

Hope you enjoy her.

I don't get it.  That IS the matte stainless.  Polished stainless Kimbers look like this:

Although it looks rather strange on a 1911, it is a tougher, more reliable design.

I was looking at that Wilson you have listed for sale today, can't believe that hasn't sold yet.  Fortunately I am in "rifle mode" at the moment so you won't get any of my hard earned pennies from me.

Beautiful gun.  Now get out and put some rounds down range with your Wilson 47Ds.  You do have a case of ammo to go, right?  You do have at least 6 Wilson 47Ds, right?  If not, what the heck are you waiting for  Hop to it!
