Yes Kimber today!
Well after hearing nothing but good stuff about the 1911s even the cheap ones I decided to look into them. Went to a local shop and the darnest thing happened, one of them followed me home. I couldnt make it go back the store with no one to play with it so I guess I'll keep the lil fella! Here is the obligatory first pic.



And this one decided to follow along also.
