I have had 2 bad experiences with Kimber 1st with a rifle it was a model 84m in .300 WSM. It was my dads rifle and I was with when he took it to the range the first time and we were surprized in a bad way. My dad chambered the round aimed and squeezed then nothing he then went to lift the bolt handle and the bang once he moved the bolt handle! Tried one more the same thing happened. Tried a third time to see what would happen and got same results. In all the years I have shot and owned rifles I have never seen this problem nor has my father who has owned a rifle or shot one from most every major manufacturer including some old military mausers. We returned it to Kimber and it took 6 weeks to get it back with an explanation about a spring malfuntion. We took the rifle back to the range and it was fine couldn't get it to shoot under and inch with anything we tried so it got replaced with a Browning and my dad has never looked back or at another Kimber since. 2nd experience with Kimber was a TenII TLE high cap .45auto first trip to the range couldn't get the pistol to stop jamming it wouldn't fire a full clip without jamming and it wouldn't feed trunkated style bullets either. It also got returned to Kimber it took 5 weeks to get returned with an explanation that the feed ramp needed polishing and clip springs needed replacing. Got it back and it shot fine but still didn't want to feed trunkated bullets. The other thing was that I was told one day that my pistol had been shipped and then I didn't see it for a week then called back and was told that it was getting shipped that day because it just got done being test fired that day. I was pissed that I was told a week earlier that it was shipped when in fact it wasn't. The other thing is that it not only came with one clip but bad customer service as well. Since then I have switched to Para Oridinance and not looked back or at another Kimber. But I'm sure there is more good than bad experiences with Kimber firearms it just happened to be that mine were all bad.
