O.K. Fellas, here's a question that's bound to draw some opinions. I'm an unrepentant Glocker and as a back up I favor my Kahr K9. However, I am in a position that I can possibly add another weapon to the battery and I'm wanting a 1911 .45.
I've had plenty of grief with this type weapon (that's why I'm a Glocker) having owned and sunk mucho dinero into 2 (a Colt Combat Commander and a Springfeild Gov't Model) and they both were less than reliable.
I'm considering one of the newer versions, the factory customs, if you will. Top on my list is the Kimber but I'm open to any and all suggestions. I'm also interested in hearing how the regular production models are now. I've not owned a 1911 for about 8 years. Has the out of the box quality changed?
I'm hoping to find one that can restore my faith in John Browning's classic design, 'caus man they are soooo cool.
Thanks,
Dan
