I'm well aware of all the typical criticisms of Kimbers. My Kimber and those my friends own are great guns and exhibit none of the symptoms people on the internet tell me they'll exhibit. Every manufacturer has to put out a bad gun every now and then, but from my experience it seems like the chance of getting one with a Kimber is just as low as every other reputable maker.
In researching the Ultra Eclipse I'm looking to buy, I came across a few criticisms of its finish durability on a couple forums. Usually in such threads, there's always one person that will show up and say "There's nothing wrong with mine!" but these threads showed an unusual lack of such posts.
So I figured I'd come here to a forum I trust and see what experiences people have had with the finish durability on their Eclipses. Bad? Good enough? No problems?
