Im looking at 1911's and i've narrowed my choices down to the Kimber Custom II or the Springfield Mil-Spec(not the GI). For awhile i was dead set on the mil-spec, but today i looked at a kimber...man, i really like those sights.
The Kimber is about 100 bucks more, but it has the nice beavertail, hammer and trigger, and i think i like the sights better.
For the Springfield, i was planning on putting a few of my own upgrades on it, like a combat hammer, maybe a trigger.
I've heard good and bad things about the Kimbers, some people have said that they have great ones, and some people have problems, does anyone have any input in this area? what about the customer service?
I've heard mostly good things about Springfield and their customer service.
Basically, i'd just like to get everyones opinions about the Custom IIs versus the Mil-spec. I know they're pretty different in upgrades, etc.
The main things im concerned with are reliability and accuracy. Which ever of these two i chose will be my everyday carry pistol.
