I showed the newest member of the family to Venus Pax yesterday at PSC, but since this thread has been too quiet recently and I know that Longtooth will appreciate seeing the new carry decision, here are some small snaps of the Kimber Ultra CDP II (3-inch bull barrel, Tritium night sights, 7-round mag):

The plunger tube on my SA Load was a bit loose, so I took it apart. :???:

Now I have to order this tool so I can restake the plunger back into the frame. :cry:

Oh well, here is a pic of my sad Springfield. :sad:

And while I was taking pics, I took a pic of my Nighthawk. Probably the last piece I can afford for a long while. :lol:

I guess I'll be shooting my G-pistol this coming Wednesday. :lol:

Those pesky plunger tubes... I'm glad to hear that you're buying the tool so I know where to go when I need one. ;-)

That NightHawk is AWESOME! :shock: That's definitely high on my list of dream guns. If you ever decide to sell it, please give me first dibs. :grin:

I will let you know if I ever decide to sell it. :smile:

Kinny, ooh...a Nighthawk. This is quite a 1911 collection you're putting together.

Thanks. So many 1911s, so little funds. :cry:

I am now the proud owner of a 1911 now. I wanted the Stainless TRP SOOOOOO bad! I just couldn't make myself pull that much out of my pocket for it. So I got this instead(got a good deal too I think):

Springfield Loaded:

I added a stainless extended slide release, stainless beveled magwell/checkered mainspring housing, new stainless grip-screws, I believe there is some sort of aftermarket trigger that had already been done, and a Wilson Combat magazine:

Novak's!

Anyway, enjoy the pics. I'm excited. I plan to get a stainless barrel bushing, barrel, and thumb safety very soon. Now I gotta get this baby to the range!

Good lookin Springer, Will.
How do you like that arched MSH.
I really like the feel of mine.

Hey Tote 9,
See you Monday. :seeya:

Thats my kind of gun Skiprr. I have a Kimber Eclips Pro II with 4"
barrel. I wonder how they would compare at 15 yrds,-- the 3 & 4"

I have never shot a gun with a 3" barrel and I'm thinking the way
I carry, a 3" should be more comfortable.

If you get a 3" gun & sell that Eclipse, I want 1st chance at it. :lol:

Thanks guys. The arched main spring housing is THE way to go for me personally. It fits my hand much better than the flat. Plus I think it adds a little visual flair to it ;-)

I like the arch on mine too.
Nothing like visual flair for all things unseen. :lol:
