I dunno, I do like my Kimbers. Hell of a gun, though the parkerising on the Custom IIs is pretty bad. Easy fix though.

I agree about that Colt made some of the best originals, though a WWII Remington Rand has its charms...

Colts are collectors first, and shooters second, Springfields are vice versa.

Also, no comment on my Christmas present? : (
