    BEST CHOICE...TISAS or ROCK ISLAND 1911A1 MIL SPEC.

    I concur. In December I bought a Kds9c. The machining on it was terrible. I contacted CS and received nothing but resistance and push back. The std response was " the gun is in spec". I contacted the COO of Kimber and sent him pics. He responded within an hour and said that CS would contact...

    Another nice bargain-

    I wish that was the price on the RI TAC ULTRA MS 10MM.

    BEST CHOICE...TISAS or ROCK ISLAND 1911A1 MIL SPEC.

    I had a similar problem with my Yukon 10 mm. I got to looking and the barrel bushing had a very loose fit. Ordered up one from Fusion firearms and it improved vastly. I too have a problem with it shooting low and I'm looking into an adjustable rear sight. This is my second yukon. The first was a...

    Is Guns.com Legit? Has anyone used them?

    Wikiarms is my go to search engine.

    S&W FPC 10mm is now available.

    Agreed that there are a few variables. I'm glad that I got the Ruger instead of the Smith & wesson. The Smith has too much plastic for my taste. Didn't like the two piece handguard pic rail. After 150 rounds I'm still digging my Ruger lc10. It has shot everything I fed it. I put a cheap red...

    S&W FPC 10mm is now available.

    Im sure there's a point of no/little gain. But I really don't think that 16" is past that point.

    S&W FPC 10mm is now available.

    That doesn't seem to pan out. Every review i've seen of the RUGER LC 10MM, using chronographs, has shown a great gain in FPS.

    1911 barrel hood slop

    All Tisas will do is use the exact same parts as came stock. You can BUY parts from them. But in my experience with Tisas, your better off buying quality aftermarket parts. My YUKON had a sloppy barrel bushing fit. I bought a replacement from Fusion. 100% better fit, and MUCH better groups.

    1911 barrel hood slop

    Thanks. I guess I can let the Tisas slide considering its a $500 pistol although I don't feel $500 is chump change in my world. The Kimber however is a different story. Between my wife and myself we currently own three kimbers and now this Kds9c. I will never buy another Kimber.

    1911 barrel hood slop

    I was able to track down the email for the COO of Kimber. Send him these pictures and a short description. Within an hour he sent me another email apologizing for it and saying that customer service would be in touch. It took 3 days Brittany to call me after that. She said that they would send...

    1911 barrel hood slop

    The firing pin hole is not round but oblong, and Kimber says that's by Design irregardless of how rough it looks. The barrel seems to be contacting the side of the slide causing damage. Kimber says that's within spec. You can see rough Machining marks on the ejection Port of the slide. Kimber...

    Brass kises

    I have bought a Tisas Yukon 10 mm Commander and this is my second one. I'm treating this one as a project gun to learn how to make things better. It wasn't very accurate and then I discovered that the barrel bushing had a tremendous amount of slop. I bought one from Fusion and that tightened up...
