I like my RIA 1911. It is rock solid reliable, accurate and in the event I ever have to use it for it's primary purpose and it ends up in the hand of the police, I can replace it for ten hours worth of paycheck.
When looking at these pieces of art it’s not just about if the gun goes bang. It means so much more than that. If you don’t understand that then you never will and that’s ok. But for others (like myself) it’s more than that and well worth every cent.
Best 1911 that is exactly what God gave to John Browning. Go to Bul Armory and its not just beautiful but practical. I carry full size 1911 in .45 acp and I love it.
We are indeed fortunate to have so many choices in the 1911 platform. Good to exceptional products out there so do your homework and try different features and manufacturers. As a Dan Wesson owner I see the CZ purchase as having great potential to get Colt back to making classic firearms. Myself I've been concentrating on commander sized 9mm's for carry and 5-6" 10mm's for rural application's.
TRP standard government here. Got rid of the two piece full length guide rod for GI with flat wire recoil spring. Beaucoup rounds through it and flawless. Thank you.
Kimbers are NOT custom guns. They are mid-tier production-line guns. I have Wilson Combat 1911s & STI 2011s & 1911s & neither brand experienced malfunctions in what would be considered the "break-in" period (first 1000 rounds). Come to think of it, my Sig Scorpion 1911 only had feeding issues during the first 500 rounds because of the crappy Sig magazines. Once I switched to Wilson Combat & McCormick TRP mags, the problems went away.
@@Teadrinker710 the older Kimber models had a more Custom shop process to them before they went full on production. Older Kimber models I’d say are 100% better then newer models

I bought my first Kimber a year ago (a Micro 9 raptor) for everyday carry and I love it. Bought my wife a Micro 380 bel air and now she carries every day. I've read ALOT of bad things about kimber after I bought the gun, but 3000 rounds later, I've never had a single jam, a single feed issue. Not once, not one bullet. I've used every bullet type under the sun, out of desperation because ammo is hard to get right now. Do I clean my gun meticulously every time I'm done shooting it? Yes. A year later i'm convinced that people hate Kimbers because they are more expensive only for their looks (or they hate the required upkeep). It makes me want to buy them even more. So i'm looking at getting my dad this Rapide for Christmas. I'd pay 3k for it. Edit: Ended up getting my Dad the Rapide NIB for $1400!
I got a kimber micro 9…. Can’t even load the magazine fully… on top of the fact that they only send 1 magazine…. And the magazine will fall out while shooting..(no I’m not hitting the magazine release). After this happening and seeing all the bad reviews on kimber I’m done with them
Kimbers reputation went down hill for some time with handgun problems. Have they taking care of these problems? Because I am interested in a black ice rapide
Wow! very nice and best quality of 1911 Pistols. To me, any brand of 1911 pistol as long as it comes from an authorized gun manufacturer, its shooting result is really good. To my humble shooting experience, proper grip of the gun, pull trigger control and proper sight alignment is the secret of having a perfect hit of the target. After knowing them well, you can shoot and hit a toothpick by just holding your gun with your two fingers only. But it's more better if we can have the Top 8 Best 1911 Pistols.
Have u watched me already in the video my friend? shooting the toothpick, edge of coin, bottle cap by holding .45 1911 pistol with my 2 fingers only. If u did,thank u so much.
The truth is that, our most respected shooting legend my idol Jerry Miculek , was not yet able to show to us the shooting exhibitions I did in my video as I did a research about him. Not even Bob Munden during his time. I still have more shooting exhibitions to show later.
very nice pistols, instead of the 45ACP I would prefer the 40 SW option( which is almost non-existent). The 10 mm Auto is always welcome, as to the 9mmP I find these gorgeous pistols a tad on a massive side for such a caliber. BUT THESE ARE MY PERSONAL OPINIONS ONLY.
These large 1911s aren't really designed or IMO practical for concealed carry although you may be able to pull it off if you have a large build .But mostly I think they are a take to the range and kind of a look what I have gun. A show piece if you will .
Hands down the best bang for your buck is the Springfield Armory 1911s. Yes they function and shoot well however the quality finished gun you get is the best value out of all of those 1911s. If you dont want MIM parts get the Dan Wesson your gonna pay the piper for it though!
I got to compare it to my Dan Wesson Discretion commander in Vegas. The rangemaster and myself preferred my Dan Wesson to the STI. Half the price and much better build quality. But after a RDS, mags, springs, and suppressor I paid the same as I would for a STI.
@@seanflanagan578 Being on my lawn would be trespassing, I don't take that lightly. You'd have to ignore all those no trespassing signs to be there, which will get you arrested for 2nd degree trespassing.
All of those Pistol were beautiful firearms, some were excellent as collector's items and many have classic 1911 features while others have modern features good for shooting sports and home defense. You know we the Filipinos also love guns maybe because we inherited that American culture on owning, possesion and fond of guns but in a legal and civilized way.
That's true.. very sad you almost need to hire an attorney just to get your gun back after a lawful shooting. How can police just steal it from you like that?
A properly built 1911 should require no break-in. If it's that tight it will stop running at the worst possible moment . JMB designed the pistol to function after you picked it up out of a swamp not quit because it had lint in the slide.
You are ignorant AF. ANY high end, pistol with tight tolerances will require break in….even a loose sloppy pistol will ‘break in’ when the parts wear and mate up. I have been a CNC machinist for 25 years, so I have an idea on metallurgy and how these things work….your logic is stupid.
@@rickmoss7040 That's bullshit sir, my Wilson combat and Nighthawk, Springfield Custom shop 1911 never required a "break in" to function right. Kimber makes garbage too tight and blames the user. Proper 1911 craftsman fit them right and DO NOT require a break in.
@@rickmoss7040 OK Rick, you are the expert and are probably correct, but not everybody is an expert like you and don't need to be called "stupid" just because they are not as knowledgeable.
2 tone CZ Bruin longslide is a perty pistol but the recoil spring plug is pain to install without scratching it. When first intod I got a new one for 1200.
This is from 2018… Simply amazing the diversity and variations in 1911s and 1911 derivatives. I think most of that stuff is hideous looking, ruining the simple lines of the 1911, but to each their own. No doubt, some of those race guns help champion competitors. Others are bought to never be shot, and are more like a sculpture. More power to all of them; they keep the factories open. I just want simple, clean lines on a reliable gun with usable sights. I think this just proves, 50 years from now, if guns are still legal, there will still be companies making 1911s, and the vast majority of shooters will not know what a Baretta 92FS is, or have ever seen one in person.
I have a Kimber mid size 1911and the lower is black anodized aluminum and the black has chipped off in several places . I am going to have a Cerakote finish put on to fix it . But you would think that a custom Kimber wouldn't have done this .
Agreed they make pos 1911s that are over priced. They couldn't make a 1911 right if they had JMB smacking them upside their heads every time they made a mistake.
I had a Para Ordnance P-12 about 25 yrs ago, it put me off automatics,for a long time, worst piece of crap ever. It jammed no matter what ammo I used even after having a couple of reputable gunsmith work on it, a huge disappointment.
My issue w Kimber is all the MIM (metal injection molded) parts in them...saw a Safety snap clean off at range...looked at it and could see the tiny air spaces in the cross section...I'll stick w all tool steel parts like in Dan Wesson 👍
Nothing wrong with properly made and fit mim parts. Forged and cast parts can have issues as well. It's all about quality control. I only trust mim parts made in house. When the company shops around to outsource the labor you end up with parts made as cheap as possible to undercut the other offerings. I wouldn't trust guns made in New York period. Too hard to get a gun there, they just ain't gun people.
I've owned a lot of 1911's over the years and my take on them is......If you want a great looking 1911 that will shoot good and look great and work just fine get a Kimber.....And if you wan to step up to a great 1911 you will want to get a Dan Wesson.

@@TheRealZJE313 bullshit term? If your pistol has all the 1911 pistol then you have a 1911 pistol but once you tinker a part of it like the beaver tail, spring guide rod, etc then your pistol is 1911 style because it features 19 11 stock pistol.

Im just trying to picture pulling one of these trade show queen pistols from a shoulder holster or waist band to defend my life. Ill stay with my glock 30, thank you.
Or my rock island
Don’t be silly. Fanboi
If it works for you that’s the gun to go with.
Why stop there, hi point makes guns you might like 😂 no one said these were mainly for carry anyway 🤷
Your suppose to pull it dramatically, slowly, so your assailant can see how pretty and edgy it is....make him want to drop his 9 and cry.
kimber should spend the money on milled internals over fancy exteriors. they're the ricers of the 1911 community
Yes indeed and the break down of the weapon is bizarre.
Kimber owners said the Kimber is better than the RIA
@@marckcarbonelloifveteran410 ria makes 500$ guns. Kimber has plenty that are over a grand
@@marckcarbonelloifveteran410 Kimbers are pretty looking turds that don't work. RIA makes solid 1911 for people on a budget and would rather own a RIA over their bs
@@zack9912000 troll. You probably just can’t afford a Kimber. My pro carry has thousands of rounds and never fails.
I have a Ruger , Remington, Springfield and my Kimber pro carry .They all are dependable 1911s.
I stick my 1911 Colt 80s series Government Model
Those are 1911 style pistols not 1911 only. 1911 pistols are those having the same feature like that of those made 1911 or WW2 pistols.
What that makes no sense
A 1911 is a 1911 no matter if it was WW2 or now only differents is GI vs more modern but it's still a 1911.even that bullshit term 2011
@@TheRealZJE313 bullshit term? If your pistol has all the 1911 pistol then you have a 1911 pistol but once you tinker a part of it like the beaver tail, spring guide rod, etc then your pistol is 1911 style because it features 19 11 stock pistol.
@@diosdadoapias dude that's the dumbest shit I ever heard.so cause one 1911 has upgraded parts it's the style of a 1911 wow.
@@diosdadoapias that's like me saying I have a Corvette but sents I did some upgrades it's the style of a Corvette wow
2018.. I'm going back in time.
I didn't know Hillary Clinton sold guns on the side! 😂
Well they are non working kimbers so it seem fitting
staccato pls ty
I have five Kimber’s I stopped by and Kimber when I found out they used injected molding parts I would pay an additional 500 bucks to have all steel when I saw the 45 caliber raptor I had to buy it and then I found out the main spring housing is plastic 😢
Like a wine in a fancy bottle looks good taste bad
All that and a bag of chips for $899
U want a cheap 1911 SDS is they way it's a exact replica of the WW2 pistol that the military was using at that time
Well I know which company I'm never buying a 1911 or anything else from.....
Which company is that?
Did HAMMER industries show up? :D
