Kimber Stainless TLE/RL II

Kimber Stainless TLE/RL II

I spent a few hours at the range with a Kimber Stainless TLE/RL II. I must say this 1911 at just around $1100 has to be one of the best values in 1911 .45acp pistols available today. The fit and finish were perfect, trigger was excellent and the accuracy rivaled 1911’s costing much more.
