any good quality 1911 (S&W, Springfield, Kimber, Colt, etc...) with all of the bells and whistles will cost you close to a grand.... and other brands such as Wilson and Night Hawk and others will cost atleast a couple grand. Kimber is a good quality 1911 that comes with many features that less expensive 1911's don't have.

thanks reaper i really like the kimber custom 1911 with the rose wood handle an the crimson trace..

The Kimber Custom 1911 .45 is probably the finest pistol I have ever shot. Even with a 3.5 inch barrel for c.c., the recoil is minimal. I really can,t tell much difference in accuracy using a 3.5 or a 5 inch barrel at 25 yards.

Would give my left tesricle for that gun. I found a nice used one for 650 but can't afford it. I know they normaly run right at 1100.00
Would also love the Wilson Combat, those are SICK

I have a Kimber CDPII Pro and it is definately the best pistol I've ever owned. Tight, accurate, reliable, good looking. I love it. But at $1000.00+ they arent cheap.

Yes it is. Without a doubt.

thanks guys

if im not mistaken, thier resale value does not go down much...they are great guns.

what are you talkin about RESALE guns are life long comittment you make when you purchase one...lol its great cause it like that one true love feeling you get over an over again on every purchase......

but what i ment was, they don't lose much value going from new to used.I've shot several Kimbers and they are very impressive.But like you said all the guns I buy are very impressive!!!!

I think they offer very good value, even at the high price.
