Found one

It seems Kimber is running a little behind on order, every shop I talked to told me a order would take 6 to 7 months.
After checking on line this weekend the closest one I found was in Ky.
Today I called every gun shop from S seattle to Olympia, Welchers (spelling?) in Takoma had one left.

I'll hit the range tomorow night and give it a test run.

To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

45 ACP

I have had my eye on this one for some time now......This one and the FN Five-SeveN are on the top of my wish list.
Congrats

Last weekend I shot a freinds Kimber Pro Crimson II in 45 and I liked it, enough to get one real close to his. The pro has a 4" barrel, the custom a 5".

I was at the range past 10:00 last night, 100 rounds of fmj ball without a single hickup. The kimber is a keeper.

Hey! I'm not a complete idiot I have parts missing. Though sometimes I wonder.

Looks like a dandy Jamie. Gonna have to get one someday. Kinda of a toss up between a good 1911 and a freedom arms 475 linebaugh for me....
