As a gunsmith, all I can say is:

More of the same from a once great company. They ought to recall everything they have sold in the last 35 years. Add their shoddy work to their contempt for the American civilian market and you have a company that would have gone bankrupt decades ago if they did not have the contract connections that they have. Piss on them.

I have a government issue Colt 1911A1 that was manufactured in 1943. My grandfather had it reworked by a German master gunsmith in 1954 when he was stationed at Fulda and it is one of the most accurate pistols I have ever fired.

A crying shame. I was about to transition to the 1911 scene by investing in a Colt 1991A1 Govt. model. They’ve slid that far, have they?

I agree. The are riding the name alone at this point.

Are you going to say that the Colt All American wasn’t a success?

[Trailerpark Badass]

LOL, do you think Kimber would issue a paid recall for bad slide stops?

They almost ran the company into the ground with bad MIM parts, and they never acknowledged it.
