I'm looking to buy my first 1911, And I have one in mind... Cabelas listing $1019.00 http://toledoatmosphere.com/Kimber.jpg I'd appreciate any and all feedback on if it's a good buy and anything else that comes to mind -Adam |

On GunBroker you can have one for $820: Kimber Custom TLE II - Ice |
Of course the CT laser grips run another $250. So $820 + $ 250 = $1070.

I got my Covert from Gunbroker & saved $350.00. I like the digi cam grips, but never use the laser, as I don't care for it. The only advice I'd give you before your purchase is go to the local range, and rent a Kimber & a Wilson Combat. I wish I had. FWIW, I sent my Kimber to WC for a trigger job & absolutely love it now, but if I had it to do over again, I'd have spent the extra cheddar on the Wilson.

Sure, if you really need to have laser grips  - Ice |
| I love my lasergrips. I want every advantage possible,especially in CCW. The laser grips help my weak hand shooting 100%. First and most important master the weapon ,without the laser. After that the laser is just a added bonus. and you dont need to change your holster. they have their place, and they do help. |

Yeah... I think I'll go with no "fricken" lasers to start, I have found a couple models that have nice "tacticool" rails to which I could attach a small light or laser in the future! Kimber.com linky http://www.kimberamerica.com/images/pistols/custom/customtrlrl.jpg -Adam |
