Hi there. I've been lurking around for a while now reading everyobody's posts and gathering the opinions I needed to confirm my own suspicions: the Kimber is one helluva gun.
I bought the Kimber Custom II (basic black finish) at the end of August. When I broke it in, I put about 500 rounds through it, with only three FTF's because I had accidentally overlubed it a bit (so actually it was more like a double feed). Corrected that problem, and kept powering through.
I hit everything within a 6" group at about 25 yards all day long. Wasn't quite used to the sights, which I'm gonna change out anyway, but still did admirably.
I love this gun!! I bought it to take with me to Front Sight in January. Seems like it'll be the perfect companion.
The only bad part is that I broke my knee right after I broke in the gun (unrelated, I promise) so I've had to wait from September 2nd until last weekend to shoot it again. And it keeps getting better.
There. I'll shut up now, but I had to share with the group. :smile:
