So far they feel pretty good, I guess I will know more after a day at the range. For the 1911's that I have I usually will buy some fancy grips that look really nice and then I usually end up taking them off and putting the factory rubber slim grips on...there ugly but to me they feel the best.

I shot a magazine off here at the office yesterday and was really impressed with the feel of this gun...I did not notice ANY recoil! She is pretty heavy out front so I guess that it what makes it feel so good.

I'm sure I'll end up at the indoor range in Humble on Saturday and kill a few hundred rounds to get a better feel for the gun.

What kind of work let you sit a pistol on your desk? I want that kind of job. Hook me up!

I work for a trucking company...You would be surprised at what I can get away with here

I think desert ironwood would be appropriate for a Desert Warrior, and that deep red and black wood would look great against the green finish.

I think I will leave the "Golf Ball" grips on them.....LOL

OK Guys!
I can't stand it any longer...I'm having dreams about this gun!

I'm leaving the office now to drive to Clute to pick it up, I CAN"T WAIT!!!

I can't find one anywhere else in town except for Collectors Firearms, they want $200 more for the gun and they ARE NOT willing to match the price!

I'll post some pictures later!

seadawg221

What part of town do you live in Kinny?

seadawg221

All Righty then!

Kinny you want to go with us?

seadawg221

They will be in Conroe later this month...
February 25th and 26th Conroe - Lone Star Convention Center
SAXET GUN SHOWS

Maybe we should just go there!

seadawg221

Maybe we should make a weekend pilgramage to Clute?

That solid trigger looks odd on a Kimber

I carry a Kimber CDP daily. The Warrior has less muzzle flip and is back on target noticably quicker than the CDP. (The CDP is no slouch, and I qualified on TFTT's Advanced Tactical Pistol Course with the CDP ;) )

The warrior has great balance. I plan on using it at the next school I go to.

I do notice the difference in weight when I carry it. It is not uncomfortable, just different.

If you were in Dallas you could come shoot mine.

Here is mine after I received it and after I got in protection mode.

MAN! That looks nice! It's hard to tell exactly what color it is, every picture I see looks different. I guess that's why I need to see one first!
