[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3149325, member: 5412"] Kimber made some fine 1911's when they first got into the business of building them. Mine is from their earlier inventory. I've heard since they went into mass production, their QC has gone downhill some, but that's indicative of the gun market in general. It seems the days of gun manufacturers taking a design to the field and busting 10,000 caps to prove its reliability is over and done with. Cad Cam designs prove in the minds of engineers that the design will work and it's sent out to the public for beta testing resulting in Gen 1, Gen II, Gen III, ad nauseum. I don't understand how in today's market where guns have a very low profit margin, they can rush a design to market and expect the public to back them when you have to make constant returns to the factory. It doesn't fit a successful business model. [/QUOTE]
