Looks good. All original? I had a gunsmith checker the front strap on mine so that required re-blue . Replaced plastic MSH, grips and grip screws. Can’t remember if it came new with FLGR? If it did I replaced that. That’s about it. Good shooter.

Here’s my old Kimber I bought new in mid 90s. Taken a renewed interest in Kimber since they moved to my home state. The NG is a sharp looking pistol.

Caliber? 9mm?

I’d like to hear from anyone that made it. Selection, how busy etc. I’ve bought my 4 already.

Thanks for sharing the article. I see the 1911 COA is now listed on the website. My LGS has had them available for a few weeks. Need to separate my 10-8 purchases from any COA ones for a while. But I do have interest and don’t want to cut my older SA models.

10-8 45 ACP and 9mm.

Ordered an ODG. Thanks for the new model.
