Picked up my new Kimber Custom TLE II which is the blued full size .45ACP 1911 with factory night sights and a few other features. I haven't got to fire it yet but the gun appears to be well made with high quality components and tight tolerances.

She's purdy! Shoot her yet?

"Carry" on!

I had to take about 20 minutes off work after lunch to pick it up, then I didn't get home until midnight. I field stripped it when I got home, now I am detail stripping it.

Nice handgun, I'm sure that you will enjoy shooting it. I have the Custom II, a somewhat more basic version of that line of Kimbers, it shoots every time!

Well, I did manage to clean it and get off to the range on my way to work this morning. I only had one malfunction and that was the operator forgot to bring enough ammo. I thought I had 200 rounds in my range bag, turns out I had 100 rounds and 100 empty casings from my last range trip.

Welcome, fellow TLE'er!

Beautiful!!! Enjoy it!!

I thought I was the only one who buys a gun then immediately takes it apart! usually they go back together....

Always have to completely strip, inspect, and clean them.

Thats the official story, I just like to take things apart.

and some of us have accumulated enough spare parts over the years doing that, we can build a whole new gun, or fishing reel, weed eater, lawn mower.....
