Went impulse gun shopping today

[imschur]

Man it was a tough trip.

I really liked the Bushmaster ACR, its  very comfy.  The Socom's were less appealing this outing. There was a  S&W 1911 I liked except for the "DK" on the slide.  There was a Les  Baer that was machined nice, had all the right stuff except the finish  was terrible for a $400 get let alone a $2000. Eventually I drilled it  down to two Kimbers. There was a custom shop model that was exactly what  I wanted for $2000 and a Tactical LE II for $1199. In the end I chose  the Tactical as It was much different than anything I own and i figured I  could spend the difference finishing these to projects I have going on  here.

There was several runners up but they lacked the correct checkering or any checkering at all.

The store had some really cool 10/22's with anodized railed recievers, bull barrels and thumbhole stocks for $700. Bulk federal was $12!!!

I noticed S&W has changed the model 41's a bit.

lastly as I was leaving I noticed a stack of 32 H&R ammo. The lines were too long and I was too tired. i guess Ill have to go back  ;D

words, words, words ...  Kimbers  ... words, words

Man, you had me at Kimbers!    :beer:

You will not be disappointed in that pistol.  I know, I sound like I drank the Kimber kool-aid, and I have.  Tell us after your first range trip that you don't love it, I dare ya.

So my main reason for getting this pistol was to utilize my Wilson Combat .22lr conversion.  This Kimber is so nicely fitted and tight that i now dont want to run the .22 Kit on it.

I think theres only one solution. I need another 1911  :dance:

>:D You always will need one more 1911
