Critical part breakage. It's a shame, they make beautiful guns. I'd like to have a Rapide, but I'm a shooter, not a collector. I've not known of anyone that has owned a Kimber and really shot one that has not had issues with it.

The Solo was a beautiful and great feeling gun, but wasn’t even a good paper weight.5” Kimbers have been flawless for me. Commander and Officer size tended to be ammo picky and the Solo 9mm I had was a malfunction machine. My Warrior is one of favorite 1911s to shoot and now has a durable finish thanks to Fatal Bert.
My micro would not feed hollow points.
I got a Custom Classic in the 90's. I've got at least a couple thousand rounds through it. I've never had a problem or a malfunction with it. I can't speak to any of the later models.
