I went by a gun shop that I don't usually get to very often because it is located on the other end of town form me. Well I got to talking the nice man behind the counter and I was asking aobut 1911s. Well I held a SA GI model and was asking the fellow what makes this a $500 gun and that Kimber a $1000 gun. Well he says see for yourself so he hands me a Kimber Tactical Custom II. WOW. All I could say was WOW. Ok now I'm seriously considering buying this pistol. My wife will not be happy, but I sure will be.
I currently only have a Walther P22 and Walther P99 in 9mm so this will be my first 1911/.45.
I suppose I get a cheaper base pistol and then add the things I want later like sites, ambi safety, mag well, and grips. I'm thinking that I'll end up just missing my pistol and wishing I would've gotten the Kimber to begin with.
Back to my real question what is the verdict on the Kimber Tactical? Does the frame hold up? Comments and complaints are welcome and will be taken with my usual grain or two of salt.
