I'm also thinking about the RCP II. It is a Custom Shop offering- I presume they do the mild melt job on it there, and possibly hand fit it, according to world wide web chatter.
Kimber won't answer any questions directly....
I found a deal on a used Colt New Agent, so I may just end up keeping it. -Same thing as the RCP minus the melt job.

I'm not a fan of the 3 inch velocity issue but with the right ammo its not a deal killer. My vote is new agent. Maybe get the kimber and sell/trade it for a nearly new Colt.
