I just bought a "like new" Kimber Pro Carry (NOT a Series II). It appears to have been shot very little. I field stripped it, cleaned and lubed, and reassembled. I then was dry firing it, and accidently tried to dry fire with the thumb safety still engaged. CLICK! The hammer FELL and the thumb safety dropped with it! Dumbfounded I thought "that can't be" and tried again. Same result every time.
The grip safety works (if not depressed, I cannot pull the trigger), but the thumb safety seems to have NO effect.
Has anyone else had this problem? Is it a simple fix? Do I need a gunsmith?
thanks for your help (I got a good price - perhaps I now know why....)
