RE: 1911 .45's
I dont know. For the price of the Quality type of Kimber. I do believe I would compare my two custom Colts. Not the Para or the new Spring Fields. I do know that you can buy a boreing nothing on it Kimber for around $700.00, but for anouther $300 to $400 you could have a nice custom made whatever the type suited to your type of shooting,gun.
Just my thoughts.
