The reason I ask is I had a customer bring one in last year, super nice guy, he was almost in tears about it. He took the pistol out to range with some 117g target loads to let his wife get a good feel of the gun, (so he could buy a new one) and let her carry the litte CDP Ultra. The gun would not cycle all the time with the light load, called Kimber as to return it under warranty for this issue. Kimber stated that there CDP Ultra 9mm models will only shoot 127g factory power loads, .......................What?.....................1,000.00 pistol.............1 kind of ammo........They offer to look at it, but if no issue was found he would need to pay the inspection fee and return shipping.
WOW, that is all I can say about Kimber, One the best high dollar, combat gold match, or super match gun, contains the same parts as the custom 2, how do I know this, call kimber and ask for a parts breakdown on a 5 inch super match and they will send you their ONE size fits all IPB (parts breakdown). that right folks that awsome raptor you have, same thing as the custom 2 your buddies got. Differance is you paid a 1000.00 bucks for snake skin grip treatments.
That is why I dont like kimber, that in the fact that you call them and they are really bad to deal with when you know what your taking about. Had a Raptor 2 come in, number 3 link gun, the VIS was located .0145 to the rear, and the cross pin was stopping the barrel, what does kimber say.....thats normal.....go up a link size, crazy but with a number 5 you only pick up .010.....what about the other .0045?
anyways, on the soap box again, sorry to hijack your post Jeff. :O
