I'd really like to find someone who knows a little about these and get some feedback...

my advise...save a $1000 or more and buy a kimber, best pistol i have ever bought and the only 1911 i will ever allow in my safe or on my side. just my opinion thats all

Kimbers are ok...although i have a buddy who bought a .308 rifle from them and he would give it away right about now. It shoots ALL over the place and hes sent it back in 3-4 times. Also misfires a LOT.
Kimber is still a production gun. Ed Browns are not. A step above.

you may be right i have only ever owned thier pistols and i can say i have put bullet holes right on top of each other so i know their pistols are extremely accurate.

Damn, he is proud of those things

I have heard they are amazing guns, but I have never shot one myself

lol i am, i should be getting paid or something. i was a springfield guy until my buddy let me shoot his kimber. dont shoot one unless you have the money to buy it cause youll be hooked!

I was actually referring to the Ed brown 1911's
they are about 2-3 times higher than a kimber

I shot a friend of mine's Brown. TBH, it felt like most higher end production guns. It shot better than I can shoot, but again, that holds true for most higher end production guns.

With that said, the fit and finish was awesome.
