Will,

The seemingly general consensus is that the Kimber mags are more prone to feed problems than aftermarket mags like Wilson, Chip McCormick, etc. I initially had some feed issues, but now I always shoot with the McCormick 8rnd mags, and no problemos.

Suggest that you go when the range is least busy, otherwise you are going to attract shooters to yourself like Texans to a BBQ if you let them see that Raptor! ;-)

Also, owning the .22 Kimber conversion for the pistol will give you a whole different gun. I love using mine, the advantage is the weight and trigger are exactly the same, and the .22 is a laser gun for grouping. Plus at 500rnd/$10 you can shoot to your hearts content!

Zounds!
Obviously there are those that have lots of play money on hand!

I did go big, as you so aptly put it, and bought the (black) Kimber Warrior as my first pistol. Yeah, I am partial to it. It shoots real good. In fact, it makes me look good, which is hard to do. I can imagine that the Raptor is just as sweet. Note that Kimber says that 500 rounds must exit the danger end before it is considered 'broke in.'

Congrats on some nice pistols. Had I more money, I was going to seriously look at the Raptor Ultra for my CCW.
