I was doing some research because I am interested in purchasing a Kimber 1911. I was very interested in the full size tactical model. The factory price if bought directly from Kimber is 1250 but of course thats not what I will be paying for it because I will be purchasing from a gun dealer. I also saw the Kimber custom II and it is priced at 850. I looked at the specs on both and the only differeces I found were that the tactical has night sites, different grip plates (I guess thats what you call them), and a 22lb recoil spring rather than a 16lb spring. So i mean is that worth the 400 dollar price difference. I would think you could replace all that on the custom II and come out paying less and in the end pretty much have the same gun. What do any of you think? Any advice on purchasing a Kimber? It must be for the most part all black.
