And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
My two are early ones, a Gold Match and a stainless Ultra Carry. Never had a problem with either. Granted the Gold Match is a target gun, best suited for tapered wadcutters, but swap in a heavier spring and it works just fine. Both are from the mid 90s.
If yer short barreled kimber is misfeeding, it is likely the recoil spring. Those coaxial springs work pretty hard when you only have a 3 inch barrel to work with....they wear out pretty fast.
hunted buffalo in montana, the outfitter was a diminutive woman named glenda, carries a snub .38 worn of bluing. I asked her why she carried it, was told, "in case wunna you assholes breaks a ankle".
Looks righteous.
ReplyDeletePoor bastard, it'll misfeed when he needs it most
ReplyDeleteCould never get my Ultra CDP to run reliably. Sold it.
DeleteMine did. sold it. It was a Custom Shop 1911 at that.

ReplyDeleteIt is…my Kimber has been a righteous partner. Never misfired and I’ve had it 10+ years. Thousands of rounds. Love it.
ReplyDeleteI'd put my Tisas, 4 1/4", bobtail Carry up against any production 1911.
ReplyDeleteI have two Kimber Custom IIs. I love them. I see that the one in the pic has the ambidextrous safety.
