Range report Kimber 45

Damn it was a pleasure to shoot that fine piece of quality firearm. The gun shot flawlessly and had a nice crisp trigger pull. We measured it this morning at just under 4# pull. No jams as stated on their reviews. The crimson laser also was dialed in for 15 yards. I only used it once for one magazine full at the end of the day. My friend who is a police academy instructor also loved it. He is going to buy one soon he said. Accurate as all heck and night and day compared to my S&W M&P 40. I think I am going to order another kimber, but have to decide what caliber to go with. Here is my first target at 15 yards. I know that is close range, but that is what I bought it for. Going to be my new CC gun. Oakie

    Which model did you end up with ????? Good shooting, it will certainly take care of you if needed... I love my Kimbers, both have been 100% reliable and very accurate !!!!!!

    I hope you enjoy many thousands of rounds together [:)]

    Kimber crimson pro carry II. The shot down to the left must have been from the 40 from the last time i shot. This target was stapled over about ten old targets and a backer target. Didn't miss the silhouette target once[:)] which is a miracle in itself.[;)][;)][;)]

    Sweet I have two Kimbers in 9mm and love them both. Ultra carry II I think is the models.

    Triggers are light and crisp and that always helps my shooting groups.
    Why don't we go to school and work on the weekends and take the week off!
