[QUOTE="Boehlertaught, post: 2687652, member: 14520"] Well. I get it now and thanks for the information. One of my sons has a kimber. It seems to shoot ok and has been reliable but it doesn't seem to be worth the money paid. It certainly isn't a custom gun. I've handled and shot pistols from Nowlin, Cylinder & Slide, Ed Brown and Host. The Kimbers I've handled don't compare to any of these true custom pistols. I'm not taking anything away from Kimber they just are not a custom pistol. I recently examined a pair of 1911 pistols from Cabot. They are a matched pair of left (yes a true left hand 1911) and right hand pistols. Both have stainless slide and frame and have real ivory grips. Odd that the grips were checkered...it just didn't seem right for them to be checkered. The Cabot pistols were nice though I did find some rookie mistakes in the fit of each pistol. I certainly did not expect tube pistols to be anything but 100% particularly since they cost $10,000.00 each. Yes 20k for the pair. Wow! [/QUOTE]
