I was told by a gun dealer that Kimber had changed their manufacturing methods by switching to a more "assembly line" method. He said these new methods are why lots of Kimbers are being sent back to the factory after they are sold, because quality control has slipped. I have never owned a Kimber, but want to purchase either a Sig Ultra two tone (3") or other ultra size (3") 1911 model of a high quality maker. I am a retired LEO and presently have two glock .40s, but want a small .45 for personal defense, so I am really not looking for a range pistol for 1000's of rounds of shooting. This would be a carry gun that I would want to conceal and carry comfortably. I would probably only put about 500 rounds a year through it. I really do love how the Kimber Super Carry Ultra and the Ultra Crimson Carry II look and feel. I also like the looks of the Sig, but can't find one to actually hold. I can find one online. I have never shot either. I have, however, found both of these Kimbers in a store and I am getting the itch to get one. Reliability would be my number one priority in this weapon, as I imagine that both the Kimber and Sig would be similar in accuracy, but could be mistaken. To those that have either of these brands, can anyone advise which would suit me best? By reading lots of Kimber posts, there seem to be issues with FTF and FTE on the Kimbers, at lease more so than some of the other brands. Are there many problems with the SIG Ultra two tone 3"? I want a small gun, as I know me, and if it is heavy and uncomfortable, I won't be carrying it as often as I would a smaller, lighter gun. I just don't want to make a mistake on such a large purchase. Thanks in advance....
