Hello, right now i'm in the final stages of purchasing my first 1911.  I'm definetly set on Kimber, but I don't know what model. I've held the Kimber Custom II and was wondering is the TLE II was worth the extra money.

It adds the checkered grip and the night sites as standard.  If you like the textured grip I say go gor it.  

I have 1911's that are checkered and ones that are not.  If I were to do it over again and get a gun with a textured front gri I would get one with a serated front strap instead of checkered, but that is just me.  I have no problem with a smooth front strap either.

I have a TLE II and love it!  I think it is worth the extra$'s.  Night sights are great and the checkering could be a little better, but overall it has most of the stuff people end up having done on their 1911.
