My first 1911

mjn · 07-28-2012, 01:48 PM

I finally snagged the Kimber I've been wanting..

Ultra ll CDP with CT laser.. Holy smoke. This sucker is like butter! I LOVE how it shoots!
Only one box thru it so far, but I'm extremely happy with my purchase!

Congrats man. After the "break in period" of 500 rounds it gets even smoother and nicer. I've got over 2k through my Custom II and have never had a gun related issue. Can't go wrong with a Kimber.

Congrats man,

Springfield PX9152LP Loaded Target in Black and Stainless.

Drool... drool... drool.... slurp! LOL!

Seriously, is the trigger smooth or ridged? My girl has a .380 with a similarly designed trigger and it's rough. Get blisters on that thing. But you say its like butter? Awesome. It's a good looking piece too... what's the muzzle length?

Kimbers have an awesome 4.5lb trigger pull.

It is smooth as glass man... and it's the Ultra II; 3".

Oh man that's a nice one! I have a Kimber Eclipse I'm gonna change up a lil to look pretty much like the Loaded.
