| Any major concerns I should worry about before buying? I here Kimber only has a one year warrenty and service sucks. Any truth to this? Please help |
| I bought a TLE a couple months ago. It is on it second trip back to Kimber now. Kept having failure to extract issues. They are now replacing the slide with a new one w an internal extractor. The pistol is very accurate and Kimber is fixing it but its taking awhile. I have read several posts on other forums with the same problem. Kimber external extractor has issues and the are discontinuing them. If it has an EE dont buy it. |
| Custom TLE/RL II here. 400 rds down the pipe of Rem UMC, CCI blazer, and two boxes of gold dots. Using wilson 47d's which through some research I found are highly recommended to not mess up your aluminum frame. Not one FTF or FTE. Mine is an internal extractor model. Puts the bullets where i tell it to real well. I love it. |

My TLE/RL II took a little while to break in. Mine is an external extractor Also doesn't like one brand of FMJ ammo (cci independence)I've tried to feed through it. Everything else I have tried so far is fine (wolf, wwb, blazer). Doesn't seem to have problems until it gets about 75-100 rounds worth of dirty in it. It loves Gold Dots, so I'm not too concerned. The Wilson 47Ds are essential. |
