both are good guns. you can't go wrong either way but I just like the springfield. I believe the kimber has more mim parts.
My dad and I went to Elmore's and fell in love with a used kimber warrior!! Not one like it, that one!! That's the one I want!!! Damn shame it'd won't be until march before I'll have tax money for it...
I have no ties to the seller, but if I were you I'd look at the Springer Lightweight Champion Operator that was just posted in the classifieds. I have one, and love it.
What purpose, carry, target etc?
I own 2 Kimbers and love them both and one 9mm STI, 1911 but I think my next 1911 will be a 4" Springfield Light Weight
Cant go wrong either way
