Kimber 45 CDP Pro misfeeding

RogersPrecision, see anything obviously wrong/correctable in my post?

I was gonna mention that my UCII looks just like yours at the top, frame to barrel rolled edge. But....Mine has the ramped, bull barrel, and the area is well below where it could hinder feeding. My gun has never jamed in 800+ rounds, but had my bouts with premature slide lock I removed material off the stop, like it looks you did, too. Kimber just doesn"t finish every gun they sell. Good luck getting yours right.

No, everything you see there is factory Kimber...

I can't believe someone would buy a high-end gun and feed it budget ammo. Does that make sense? Like I'll buy a Vette and run it on kerosene.

This statement makes no sense Kerosene cost more than gas, where I'm from. Kimber is not a high end gun, either, so running WWB in them is ok. Now a Wilson, or Ed Brown, you can only shoot premium PD ammo for practice

Send it to me and I will fix it. I cannot believe all the reports of these guns not working. If the magazine is ok. How the cartridge is dispensed and the feed ramp is correct it will work like a champ.

I cannot believe all the whinning about these guns not working.

I am not sure why you can't believe that people are unhappy when they spend $750 to $1000 on a new Kimber and it doesn't work.

For that kind of money, a new gun should not have to go back to the factory to make it run, nor should you have to hire a gun smith to make it reliable.

What part of that are you not able to wrap your mind around???

I spoke with Kimber again yesterday and told them the whole story. They said send it back (warranty), so I'll probably send it off next week... after a few more test rounds, that is.

I think you are wasting ammo.
