Re: My "new" Kimber polymer pseudo 1911

You can get similar double stack polymer grip current production guns from STI. Here's one example . Albeit a far-far better gun. It's 3x's what i paid for the Kimmy.

Re: My "new" Kimber polymer pseudo 1911

So Kevin, how fat is this thing in the hand compared to M&P, XD, XDm, and Glock .45s? I have no Idea, Never held one of those. Or any other type double stack .45. But I have double stacked Para Ordnance's and I will say the grip width of the Kimber is thinner than the para's. Since the Kimber d...

this gun is "old" ;-) They gave it up years back, although not sure why they couldn't get any where with it? S&W and Sig do just fine with their externals on their 1911's.

Re: My "new" Kimber polymer pseudo 1911

show the groups :) To you guys they probably suck being only 7 yards. It shot more "precise" than "accurate" but I don't claim to be a good shot. So its probably my lack of accuracy learning the sights. let me snap some photos of the targets! Between the two there are 40 rounds ...

Re: My "new" Kimber polymer pseudo 1911

Nice pistol. It would be nice if you would re-size your photos before posting. It would much easier to see the whole image. These images are 2,048 × 1,536. Thanks. Is that better? :anamatedbanana I usually use my cell phone camera, this is my first point and shoot and I'm not used to have like a bi...

My "new" Kimber polymer pseudo 1911

This thing is as out there as it get for a 1911, Plastic frame, double stacked, external extractor, and bull barrel. If only it had Para's LDA! haha. Took it out put 50 rounds through it. Shot perfect and made tight groups. Kimber fanboys hate the thing and it has a bad rep. But a lot of the bad rev...
