I like and even don’t mind, well actually prefer the older or first Gen Kimbers. The issues with them now are 10:1 what they used to be. In comparison there is a better more quality 1911 offered, SA, Colt and even Ruger or Rock River.
Davin. N. A "Barney" mag. When shooting in competition you load one in the chamber before putting in a full mag. That is typically a mag with just one round in it then you discard it. A Kimber mag could not malfunction with only one round. As an aside I used a Kimber Raptor for years in USPSA Limited 10 with no issues. It performed great. My Kimber 9mm Target has been flawless.
