I bough the wife a Savage 223 varminter. Found a deal that I could not refuse, so it came home with me. She has already had it out, and started printing neat little groups on targets with it. She liked the idea behind my .308 varmint gun, just didnt care for the recoil (not that there was much). Stuff like that I just cant wait to see her smile about, so I will have to find something else to put under the tree for her to unwrap.
I have been looking at a few different Kimber 1911's. The ones I'm eyeballing are super expensive but from everything I've heard and read they are second to none. Very aesthetically pleasing as well.. I need to hold one to see how it fits my hand and rent one and do some shooting first before I buy. I'm thinking of a "to me from me" Christmas present. I just don't know if I'm ready to spend more money on a handgun than my first car was worth.. Lol.
Anyone have any any feedback on Kimber's laser grips? I know they value them at ~$350 but I've never used/seen how they work. I realize I don't need them but I'm leaning towards going all out if I do buy a Kimber. So anyone have any input on Kimbers overall and their laser grips?!
Thanks in advance!
Kimbers are nice looking guns. Nothing special about the internals. Depends on what you are looking for. If you want a pretty gun to enjoy and take pride in then good for you, nothing wrong with owning something that looks nice. For pure utility there are better options. As far as laser grips, they can be added later. I like Crimson Trace products and have owned three sets over the years. I do not currently have a set on any of my guns.
Would you like to be a little more specific as to what better options there are based on utility? I was under the impression that Kimbers were top notch in every category. Also, about the Crimson Trace laser grips, you said you have owned 3 sets but don't have any on any of your rigs now, why is that?
Thanks in advance VERT!
