I had the opportunity to handle a Kimber Pro Carry II 1911 clone--it's more a commander size than full size.
It felt perfect, balanced wonderfully, I loved the trigger. I like it in .45 ACP. The only thing about it I didn't like was the Crimson Trace laser grip--I don't like where the laser is located, when my finger is up on the slide instead of the trigger, it blocks the laser. So I want one that doesn't have the Crimson Trace.
Now, I'm trying to decide if I want to, as they say, pull the trigger on one.
But before I do that, it seems like I should solicit some views on whether that's a good choice, if there are other similar models I should be considering, and other general information about this choice.
As other information, I have a couple XD pistols (9 and 45), a Sig P229 in .40, a Rock Island 1911 in .45 ACP, and a few other things.
But man--that Kimber felt sweet.
So, any comments or ideas? TIA.
