I posted this at the Kimber section of the 1911 Forum last night but don't have any answers yet and as I'm an impatient guy I'll try here.
On my way home from work Friday night I stopped at a gun shop and found a used Royal series I for $599.00. I was comparing it to a new stainless Colt Series 70 but I just like the feel of a Kimber better so I put the Royal on lay-a-way.
It has a chrome magwell which I think looks out of place on the all dark Kimber so I may change that. Any recommendations?
The grip safety is the only thing that shows signs of wear. Who makes a decent looking drop in grip safety that will fit the Kimber?
I also may change the slide safety to a wider one. Again, I'm looking for recommendations.
It came with a really cheap looking mag. For my CDP I have a 8 round CMC Shooting Star and a 10 round Power Mag. I'm happy with them but should I consider something else when I buy more magazines for the Royal?
TIA
