Kimber 10mm?

[Redleg]

What's the word on the Kimber 10mm? Anybody?

Explain "whats the word." My FFL has sold two or three, if your wondering if theyre available...

Results will vary if, if you are referring to reliability, functionality, accuracy or service.

I shelled out the buckage for one. 3 trips back to Kimber and several more through one of our local highly-rated gunsmiths and I finally gave up and the dealer gave me my money back. Most of the problems came from out of spec barrles, unfinished or choppy chambers and failure of MIM parts.

Now, mine maybe a corner case, others just love thiers, but I for one am spooked about Kimber. Might buy again, but I am going in to the shop with a cleaning kit, disassembly tools, bore lights and magnafying glass if I do.

Almost 10,000rds of DoubleTap through mine with no issues. Very accurate weapon!

Thanks guy's! I just wanted to know they were working for the guy's who have them. I think I may just look for another Delta.

mine works great...

Have run about 4500rds of full power loads through mine with ZERO problems. Everything on it is original (no work done yet), the accuracy at 75ft is amazing. I have enough faith in the Kimber that it shares the duty of nightstand gun with my SA 1911 .45, all round it is a great weapon and well worth the cost.
