I take it back. 1911’s aren’t the worst handgun, only cause I forgot about XD’s
Side note: all I’m saying is completely joking and in good fun, please don’t everyone get butthurt like on ODT
Not the only one. The 1911 I kept when I had to sell all my guns when is a Kimber classic custom ( the predecessor to the Custom II). Had it 20+ years. No problems. Eats whatever I feed it. Knew I couldn't get much cash for it because limbers get trashed on the interwebs & the finish is crap. On the flip side I had a Kimber officer size that was picky as hell about ammo, the weather, the day of the week, etc.The only Kimber i ever owned was a Custon II, all black not the two tone carbon/stainless, the bottom of the Kimber barrel in 1911s. I bought it used, like heavily used, and it was not much to look at. BUT....it was, and still is to this day the most reliable 1911 I have owned. I had some flying ashtray hollow point ammo that was problematic in my SA and Colt 1911s. I had set it aside to shoot in my S&W 1917 revolver because it was so unreliable in my 1911s...constant failure to feed issues. That worn out Kimber would feed and fire that ammo and anything else I fed it all day long. It really amazed me. I sold it for $500, lol.....story of my life. Maybe I had the only reliable Kimber ever made, who knows?
Piece of shit handguns I have owned or fired
Sig Mosquito
Sig 2022
GSG 1911
Phoenix HP25A
I'm trying to think of others, but the Mosquito was in a whole nother league.
My apologies. I recant my former statement. Honestly anyone who wastes that kind of money on such an awful firearm deserves every problem it has

I actually swore off the officer size because the little Colt I bought to replace the little Kimber was incredibly ammo picky too. Since then I have stuck with Commanders or full size 1911s. YMMV
You ain't wealthy or a redneck. I'll give tree fiddy and 2 handies for that.
Shit man, I gave that gun to my dad last year. I will get it back eventually but I'm in no rush for that to happen because that means that he'll be gone. He loves that damn gun.
Karl's butt hurts, but not because of 1911 talkI take it back. 1911’s aren’t the worst handgun, only cause I forgot about XD’s

Your Kimber officer probably wasn't picky bc it was a Kimber. Officer 1911s are known to be finicky. I've had 3. The V10, a Para Expert Carry, and the ECO. The ECO was the only one to run right, 100 percent. I did have a Kimber Tactical Ultra but I can't comment on it since I never shot it...
