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.

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!

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.



I don't own any TLE's...yet but I do have some of these!

My daily carry one.



The latest Kimber that I aquired!
