    Kimber TLE/RL II or Warrior? Buying tomorrow.

    I am either buying the Kimber TLE/RL or the warrior. Can I get some fast feedback on which one you would buy and why? I am buying one of these tomorrow.

    Thanks guys!

    You want an ambi saftey? If not, get whichever is cheapeast and save the $ for ammo.

    IMO.

          The TLE has front strap checkering, I'd say go for that rather than the Warrior. Unless you want the name Warrior on the slide. Had both and ended up buying a Les Baer.

              Custom II, great out of the box hand gun Get a few Wilson Combat 47D's and if you can find some WWB .45's you'll be golden

              If not get what suits your budget and style. Kimber's are awesome pistols, especially after the break in period

                I'm not sure why people are recommending a Custom II when you're looking for a TLE.

                The Warrior's main advantage was the lack of a firing pin safety. Since we're in CA, we get stuck with the Warrior II.

                I think the frontstrap checkering is one of the best options available, so therefore the TLE/RL II over the Warrior II.

                Unless you can pick up a regular Warrior, by all means, go for it!

                  I have a warrior II and i love it.The tritium night sights are sweet, And it is a accurate pistol, off hand 3 inch groups at 15-20 yards.It will come down to this as long as its a kimber its all good. O yea hogue grips a must.

                      Not to thread jack but what do you guys thinks of the pro-carry II
                      Jackandblood on shotguns:As I understand it, semi is geared more towards sporting. Then again, according to counter strike, it's imperative to put 3 quick into center of mass. Also from what i hear you dont want a pump shotgun for home defense as the pumping sound is "cool" and will actually attract more thugs. Like starting a party up in here.

                        Thanks for all the help. I knew I could count on you guys.

                        Whats the difference between the warrior and warrior II?

                            Get the TLE or TLE/RL depending on your needs.

                              TLE/RL II. Better finish options than the Warrior II. And if you get tired of the firing pin safety, you can always have it removed and have a 70 series type 1911.
