Last year I rented and shot a new Kimber EVO and found it was one of the most impressive small pistols I've ever run. Its metal construction gave it some decent heft, it was very well balanced, had very little recoil and I was able to point very naturally with it. I loved the thing. Everything but the $900 price tag.
Yesterday I saw the same model new at Cabela's for $560. I'm guessing prices are falling because nobody wants to pay $900 for a 7-round pistol these days. I'm tempted to get one. The fit, finish and feel of the Solo just really stands apart from any non-1911 style subcompact gun I've shot. I'm a fan of many like the PPS, Shield, XDS, etc. but they all feel plasticky next to the Kimber.
Anyone else tried one? Own one? Think they'll catch on more now if prices are coming down?
Very few holsters are available for this model, so it can't be a very strong seller so far.
