It seems the Marines will retire some of the 1911s that Recon has carried for so long. The SOCOM detachment will turn in their current .45 1911s and get...
....45 1911 Kimbers.
Excellent peice. Now, if they would scrap ALL the 9mms in favor of .45s.

Kimber only makes uber-primo 1911s. Gun queers make messes thinking of having their very own Kimbers.
Actually, they only look pricey to poor college boys like me. The bare bones model starts around $ 750 and they move past $2000 for the sweetest rigs.

I checked and the only Kimber thing I could afford was the ball cap.
