>Kimber
Get a CSX
>>
I heard kimber got a new CEO and is good now, no idea how true it is.
>>
>>65135541
I'd buy that. Who makes it and what caliber?
>>
>>65135573
everything I've heard suggests that modern kimber is fine, in the same way that ruger is fine. I will say that their shaping feels good in the hand with that rounded bottom corner and I would buy a kimber before buying a ruger 1911

It wasn't funny the first time

I've heard that these things are kind of punishing in terms of recoil.
Like, you shoot it once to get a feel for it with your defensive carry ammo of choice, and then stick it in your pants and hope you never have to use it again punishing.
No idea if that's actually on the level though.
I have shot their micro in 380 and it was fine, I liked it, but prefer a DA/SA or striker for my carry piece, not a fan of cocked and locked personally.

how come they got 15 and 17 round mags with same looking grip?
>>
you can swap out the backstrap which will extend the grip
iirc, the larger backstrap makes the 15rd flush fit and the 17rd a touch longer than flush

I have a micro 9 raptor and a CSX E-series and the CSX mogs the micro 9 in just about every metric. Higher capacity, better reliability, less felt recoil, more mags in the box, totally ambi by default, customizable grips, optics ready, and it even comes in a 3.6 inch barrel option if you want it. The micro 9 has better aesthetics and a slightly slimmer profile and that's pretty much it.

thx, that sort of shit should've been present on their ad.

>>65135541
Looks good, is total dogshit.

Bought one with rosewood grips, fail to fire multiple times. The firing pin wouldnt strike hard enough to consistently detonate ammo.

Returned it.

Garbage gun.

huh?

I TRUST THEM GOOD ‘OLE BOYS AT KIMBER MORE THAN ANY POLY-CRAP-OMATIC. I CAN’T SEE PAST THE “LOVE PUDGE” AS THE WIFE CALLS IT ANYWAYS SO IT DOESN’T MAKE A DIFFERENCE IS SOMETHING GOES WRONG WHERE THE SUN DON’T SHINE.

If it's anything like the one I shot six years ago, complete and utter dogshit.
>>
>>65135816
Checkmate. This was the first time.
>>
the only people I know who own a kimber bought it because they think it looks cool but they never carry or train with it.
