My Kimber Custom Covert II is DEFECTIVE!!! WTF?
8/25/2010 9:56:27 PM
It shot 200 rds of CCI Blazer flawlessly. I liked the laser grips but basically I ran this gun dry and fired the rounds as fast as I could with my brother in law loading mags for me. It was very accurate. It heated up a little during the course of fire. Very glad I bought it.

Amazing! Another one of you "lucky" people that bought a Kimber that works.
Congrats on the new 1911!!!

i have two kimbers. that fucking external extractor on my Eclipse Pro II always works and WTF i never even had to tune it.
my other kimber custom stainless is a real piece. i spent like $400 on it OTD. fucking thing shoots quarter sized groups at 10-15yds.
i was expecting my 1911's to be fed a steady diet of ball ammunition, but of course not. these low quality junk 1911's shoot expensive HP's too, corbon dpx, hornady XTP, federal HST, ranger T's, etc.

Ditto with my Compact and Pro Custom. Bought both used $400 and $800 respectively (Pro came with 12 Chip McCormick mags too) Damn things eat everything and can't get it to jam with the exception of using the three Colt mags I have.

My SIS has the same problem, the only time it acted the way it was "supposed" to was when I accidently a Colt mag in it.
Other than that, it feeds everything

Really - why is this even a question. if it don't work out of the box, put it back in the box. Makes life simple.

I agreee the KimPro's are excellent mag's. I've got KimPro's, Wilson, McCormick & they all work. Several year's ago Kimber had a Mag problem & they went back to the drawing board & made the KimPro's 100% reliable.

For real I had alway's heard Kimber's were shit so since my life is so perfect I figured a fucked up Kimber would give me something legit to complain about. Not with my luck, fuck I have two Kimber's & they run 100% I can't believe this shit, now i have to complain about them working all the time

My Custom II is a beast as well. WTF is going on around here?

I know I was pretty pissed when my Kimber Pro Carry put 2 rounds through the same hole at the ACTS (rifle/pistol competetion) match I did last month. Was also pretty annoyed when it nailed the tennis ball out of the 2" slit at 30 yards first shot...pure junk.

i'd be pissed. you're supposed to get 2 holes for your money.
