My customer was having repeated problems disengaging the grip safety while using his 'thumb on top of safety' grip.
The Kimber Series II guns require a bit more grip safety movement to insure the firing pin safety has been disengaged. Even though I accelerated the timing of the firing pin block for minimal engagement, and set the trigger release to coincide, the problems continued.
The stock grip safety:
Bottom portion milled away:
Stainless steel block silver-soldered in place:
Finish contoured:
Installed on gun:
It is really quite comfortable. With a thumb on safety grip, one can't even tell it is there, but disengagement is very, very positive!
Silver-solder is my friend.
