How would you know that you stepped up in quality; you never shot your Sig's. And why would you carry a firearm you haven't shot???
Regardless of marque, you need to run some (lots of) rounds downrange through your carry gun. I certainly hope you spend some time at the range with your new Kimbers before putting them in a holster for carry. Assuming may very well end badly.

Oh BTW, if you search on the internet, you will find a couple of Kimber horror stories - a mechanical device is a mechanical device and hence can fail.
You had a firearm you carried daily but never fired? What is the point of that? How do you know if it even works much less if you could hit something if you had to?3 weeks ago I had 2 SIG 1911s. I was perfectly happy and loving them. A 2 tone Ultra compact 1911 that I carried daily and a SIG Nitron Carry 1911. Both were never fired.
Please sit back and enjoy the story of my 1st Kimber and how I had to have a 2nd

I walked into a local gun shop just for fun 3 weeks ago. I only looked at the 1911s. Saw the Kimbers and loved them. Then the perfect storm starts to brew. I just happened to be carrying my Nitron Carry on me that day, Kimber Ultra Crimson Carry on sale for 1100, and I just happened to have some cash on me too.
Store owner was at counter. I said you up for a trade?
He says what you got? SIG Nitron Carry. What are you looking at? The Kimber on sale. Cash or credit he says. Cash. 300.00. I say done! walk out with my 1st Kimber and a smile that must have looked like the one I wore after my first time.
3 days ago at work my buddy has a Kimber Custom II that i had been eyeing. I joke and say trade my NIB SIG 2 tone for your Kimber. The next day the deal was done.
So in these last 3 weeks I went from no Kimbers to 2 Kimbers and I couldn't be happier!
I hated to say goodbye to my SIGs. But I believe I have reached the next level in a quality firearm

Once you all get done patting yourselves on the back and other for picking apart my story. I hope you all feel better.
If my story scares you, cease reading scary stories.
Yes yes, save your witty response. Im sure all of you are mr. gun usa, hand to hand extreme fighting champ,firearms pro (given right?), navy seal, delta force, marine recon, know it all's.
I was just sharing my story. I thought this forum was a place to meet like minded people and chat up guns and the like.
More like a place where people whos' power of anonymity makes them think what they think matters. Dont like my post? get the F on. Start your own thread.
We love chatting up guns and the like, but you did two dumb things. The first, carrying an unfired pistol and the second, trading your Sigs for Kimbers. Sorry, but your dumbassery had to be called out so that others hopefully won't make the same mistakes.
