    I swear by mine - 10K rounds and counting.

    Make sure you use only factory mags, CI mini-mag solids shoot excellent and function 100%, and change your recoil spring and mag springs every 1K rounds.

        My dad has one, a little bit of problems feeding, but i would guess it to just be ammo related (bulk crap).

        the mags dont fit with a enlarged mag well, they require some fitting

          ???????? How much fitting? I would think they should work right of the box on a Kimber 1911.

            That's practically every visit to the range for me 10k maybe?

                Yeah it's great..a little particular with some ammo but well worth the price.
                BTW I picked it up here in Sac from RCGE.

                  Works great with no problems so far. I recommend it, especially for practice. It's nice only spending $14.50 for ammo and not using it all in one hour's worth of range time.

                    I only have exp. with the Kimber .17 mach2 conv. kit. I put it on my Kimber Classic Custom. It took about 500 rounds plus a lot of "workin" the slide to finally work smoothly.

                      Mine functions flawlessly with CCI mini-mags. Pretty darn accurate too!

                        My dealer sold lots of kimber 22 conversions and extra magazines on ebay until they showed their true anti gun colors.
