This Kimber Custom II 1911 45 caliber pistol was awesome to shoot.  It had a skeletonized hammer and trigger with a one sided safety.  It had the white 3 dot sights with a flared ejection port. 

When I first shot this pistol, it took me by surprise by the how light a trigger pull the Kimber had.  It seemed like I barely touched the trigger before it fired.  It took me a little while to get used to the gun as I was shooting as you can see by my first target (yellow target below).

However, once I got used to the trigger, I started shooting a lot better, and I really enjoyed shooting this 1911.  I had gone to the range with my dad this time when I rented it, and he actually really loved shooting it too.  On a side note, he is finally starting to dislike his taurus now that he has shot this 1911.  Anyway, I liked this pistol and it might be one that I add to my collection in the future.  But at around $1,000, it is going to have to wait awhile.

    Gun Range Project

    I am slowly renting all the firearms from my local gun range, Iron Sights,  in Oceanside, Ca.  This project is going to take me quite awhile to go through, but I am slowly and surely getting through it while having a blast! :)
