Nice man! Can you post a video of you firing it?

Surely

Once I get the form 1 approval I'll put a vertical foregrip and telescoping stock on it.

Grade A gun and Grade A+ stache

Also, my last form 1 took 4.5 months.

is that a buzzsaws shirt?

Thanks a lot @Lord Ratner , now I have to buy another gun and a FRT. My wife might kill me after the last 12 months of gun-related purchases - worth the risk.

Well before you do, I think it's important that you know that there is now an FRT for the Auto Ordinance Thompson... And yes, they do sell 100 round drum magazines.

At the risk of being told "no shit": Kimber warranty service is terrible...

Sadly, that's been the case for quite some time! About 15 years ago, a bud who was a Canadian Air Force officer stationed here in Texas that always wanted a quality 1911 bought a Kimber based on its reputation. Like you, it had constant feed issues and when he sent it back for warranty repairs, he got the same story about modifications they alleged he made to the pistol. Now, this guy was as honest as the day was long, so they claimed the gun store that sold it to him (new) may have done the work. Well, I knew the owner of that store and can guarantee he wouldn't do such a thing unless a customer requested it. It appears that's the "out" Kimber uses when a shitting pistol makes it through their factory.

A lot of people give Springfield crap about some of their 1911s being made in Brazil, but I have several that span their line and not a single one has ever given me an issue. Yes, JMB's most famous handgun has been known to be a bit picky, but after 115 years most of those issues have been fixed and even lower-end pistols are usually very reliable!
