does anyone know why smith and wesson reverses the spring on their guns? they have you but the open end on the rod first.? seems like all the others do it closed end on first.
You must have really strong hands because I can't for the life of me press and turn the pin thing without using some type of tool and the spring usually flies across the room. lol
Easy, fast video. I just bought a kimber 1911 classic stainless steel gold match. I had no idea how to take it apart, I own a glock 22, couple sigs. I finally a Kimber. I looks just like yours. LOL Regards.
becuz der dumb ass thinks there dissasemblen but there only feild stripping the gun cuz there so stupid they dont know how to putt it all back together
you have no idea... I did a complete tear down the day I got mine... there are parts in the trigger assembly that are tiny.... this is a GREAT video, shows you the quick way to be ready to clean. The complete tear down is a whole evening for a noob.
In between the 3 weeks that I posted that comment and now, I have learned so much about 1911's. I actually went out and put down a deposit on a Springfield GI and now I just have to wait until I am 21 (22 more days) to "DROS" it and start my 10 day waiting period. Im pumped!
Nice Gun! I shoot the Kimber Raptor II with some custom bits. I also have an Springfield XD. If I had to draw a weapon out of my nightstand to protect my home it would be the Kimber. If I am heading out to the wilderness I always take the XD. Aside from being more protective of my Kimber, my XD is easer to clean and I can abuse it and it will fire... and plus, if I ran out of ammo I would have no reservations about throwing my XD at someone :-).
Ya i wanted the SA TRP operator. But it didn't come in stainless. So I went w/ the Kimber TLE II. Both very cool guns. ...man all this talk makes me want to hit up the range after work. ha!
wow, that stinks man, only because they do make a stainless "operator" style model, but it doesn't have a rail, but still has adjustable sights, night sights, beavertail, 6lb trigger pull, ambidextrous crap, and a nice pachmayr hand grip. I think it is just called the TRP "loaded" or something like that, but it is in SS, i shot one at Scottsdale Gun Club the other day, shot real good ^_^, but noticed it had more kick than the Kimber.
Ya I'd just keep the stock sights if I was you, the newest Custom II's also have even further improved sights with the forward slant on the rear surface. Basically there's not a thing on the new ones that needs changing, except things for cosmetics only like maybe the grips. They're great guns, never had a single problem with mine, even more than I can say for my Glocks, you'll love it.
hey man im new to guns. disassembly of bushingless 1911 the same as the ones with barrel bushing? im planning to get one soon, and its gonna be a kimber.
Yes, I put on smooth cocobolo grips, and the sights are actually a similar height to the stock Kimber sights (which are excellent), I simply prefer the ghost ring Novak I have on it here. Much faster target acquisition.
Nice little Video I was wondering though could you maybe do another one showing the very beginning where you took the spring out so nicely... On my kimer Eclipse custom. I seem to have to turn that end piece to get the spring out.. How did you do that??
We need more people like you that show how to do these things.. Also put up a video that shows cleaning and reasmbly
Just what I was looking for...Thanks.
