Greetings SOSS and Kimber 1911 fans! After nearly two weeks of trouble with ordering via the website I eventually was able purchase this marvelous American full-size 1911 pistol over a year ago in May 2025. I am just getting around to writing up a review mainly because I stowed this collectors item away and finally got around to cleaning and took it on a trip to Alaska with me and fired it for the first time. Well it operated 100% perfect and flawlessly worked through 200 rounds of various manufactered factory brass cased 230gr FMJ ammo! First up was 100 rounds of Winchester Target & Practice range pack white box, then Federal American Eagle, and another 50 of Winchester T&P. This is my second brand new Kimber pistol, other is a Micro 9 in FDE, that Ive had 0 issues or hiccups with out of the box. The firearm and accessories it came with are fantastic. I was even able to take advantage of Kimbers 1911 Summer Sizzler rebate to save up to $330 on accessories that included $150 online credit plus 3 factory magazines. Huge score! I ordered two extended 10 round plus an 8rnd magazine. The trigger and action cycling function of this Independence 1911 is very true and crisp. Making is a BLAST to shoot! Oh and that reminds me, the compensator barrel bushing is a great addition and adds to the easy of shooting and enjoyment of this gun. This pistol does not kick like a typical 1911 firing .45 ACP with it at all! About the online ordering issues. It turns out SOSS's online payment system is very picky/sensitive and did not like a myriad/host of parameters I entered and is very picky though unspecific in the error. I will say that I had recently moved and I am sure that was part of the problem. But I had to contact customer service support many times both via email and over the phone in the span of 1-2 weeks in attempt to get help. Unfortunately it was to no avail for the first week and I spent far too much time and trouble trying to get my combination order of ammo, Remington gun oil wipes, and the Kimber pistol ordered. Eventually I got in touch with someone higher up like a team lead or manager and thankfully she helped get my order all squared away. If I recall correctly they had recently changed their call center and/or online platform for ordering of something earlier last year 2025 and things were a total mess. They do handle large volumes of inquiries and ordered too. Sometimes it take continued persistence and I must say all said and done, it was well worth if for this iconic piece of American Independence in a modern remake of Brownings 1911 sidearm pistol in which we were back-to-back World War champions! God bless America, and long live the republic!
