Re: Kimber Solo

A buddy of mine had one when they first came out. He got rid of it the next week.

It was very picky with ammo. It didn't like various types (grains, brands, etc..). It wasn't at all comfortable to shoot because the frame was very slippery. I had to adjust every other shot to make sure that it would not fall out of my hands. I believe he had to put that skateboard tape grip on it. It was extremely uncomfortable to shoot. The aluminum frame made it extremely lightweight, but it felt like I was shooting a 357 out of a snub nose after I was done with a full mag. I know its a 9mm, but c'mon!

All in all, I think it was ridiculous to have to cater to something so picky and unreliable when you're paying a hefty price tag. I say save your pennies and look for what else is out there on the market and invest into something better.

Though, to each their own..
