Kimbers on sale for 5% over wholesale

Post by adayton » Wed Jul 09, 2014 4:58 pm

I was out to my local range (Open Range in Crestwood) and happened to be walking by the display that held all the Kimbers and saw what appeared to be a pretty good price on one ... Then I kept looking and seemed like they all had pretty good prices ...
Turns out they are severing their ties with Kimber and will no longer be a Kimber Master Dealer ... and they are selling out of their stock ...
Some good deals to be had if you are into Kimbers ... Just one person's opinion..... I know, opinions are like .... well, you know the rest ...
Here's one I picked up ... I've had my eye on one of these for a long time ... decided today was the day ...

Honestly, I'm surprised anyone still carries them for the price even on sale. After putting up with their customer service not fixing the issues with mine, I swore them off a long time ago.

I believe that is one of the things that sent Open Range over the top ... I have never had an issue with one (knock on wood) ...

I owned a Custom II for a while. It was a pretty accurate pistol (but maybe it was just me haha) but it got traded away for an old Springfield and a mitt full of cash. Don't regret it at all. I'd rather have a Rock Island and money in my pocket than another Kimber.

But a lot of people like them, so more power to em. If everyone liked the same thing life would be boring.
