I have 3,000 rounds through it... in my 50 years of 1911 experience, this short barrel bushingless stainless bull barrel is all that it can be,... I shoot it every week, just to keep my edge.. I have 40 guns.. 15 of them were former personal carry... as you get older you hone your carry... I no longer choose a carry gun to go with my attire.. AS a tenured conceal carry veteran 35 years of civilian carry . With the world as it is today, I now dress around my carry, not the other way around... when calling on a personal defense weapon to save your life.. you do not want to be guessing what weapon you have today.. most people buy a gun and then buy another to upgrade to a better more effective or more confident EDC.. in my opinion.,.. its not in my best interest to hone my EDC skills with different EDC weapon... I have enough shotguns air guns and pistols to have all the fun I want but...my EDC is serio0us business.. and I want it to be part of my anatomy.. not something I have to think about.. I carry it every waking hourEvil.....how many rounds have you put through it? Looks very new for an EDC. I would recommend putting that Kimber through its paces before depending on it as an EDC. Maybe you are extremely meticulous and have fired 1000 rounds through it. Nice looking piece!
