I bought the 4" Pro Raptor and love it. Have put 500 rounds threw it ( Federal and Remington UMC 230 grain with zero problems. Good for carry & home defense.
As this video is about .45 pistols, wouldn't it be more appropriate to call the serration patterns something like "snakeskin," rather than "fish scales?" "Fish scales" sound kind of sissy.
a kimber cant compare with any colt on the market! ask kimber about the barrel rusting on their $1600.00 plus guns!!!! ha! any 1911 on the market is better than the kimber! all that custom shop BS is crap. kimber brags about carbon steel match grade barrell, assembly,! kimber, ever heard of stainless steel? extra etching per sguare inch for grip! ha! BS! the best thing on my kimber is the night sights and crimon trace laser and both are not made by kimber!!!
I have the 3'' Ultra Raptor. On these extremely compacted 1911's it is VERY important to test the carry ammo of choice. Please don't skimp, 100+ rounds of choice carry ammo is a must; due to the fact that the 3'' models are the most finicky 1911's. The recoil spring MUST be kept fresh, and a proper, firm grip is also important to maintain proper slide timing during recoil. My Raptor likes the Corbon Pow'rball 165g. If You can get one that runs well, it's a great little carry piece.
@MyREDTAIL Both holsters are made for Kimber by Galco and carry the Kimber logo. The holster for the 3" pistol is the Avenger model, for the 4" pistol it is the Concealable model. Kimber also recently added to their line a holster for the 3" mode made by Mitch Rosen, an excellent holster at a very reasonable price.
I see it as being an extra addition to the 1911 design. It also complicates things a bit more and its another thing that could possibly get clogged up in the field. For carry use though, I think it would be fine.
my 1911 is bigger then his...

@ByRecentDesign Good one. If I still lived in Florida, I would have thought about that. I've been in GA too long; all I think of now are Carp & Bass.

eh, I just don't like 3" 1911s. 4" is okay, but full size is the way to go for me.

For being a small conceal pistol the Kimbers are a little heavy
