Thanks. The SS UCII I bought just before I went to qualify for my permit and it is my primary carry sidearm. It was lonely for a short while and found friends rather quickly. :lol: My brother gives me a hard time about shooting .45s, much less the 1911s, but I like shooting them a lot better than a 9mm or his .40s for that matter. His issue is primarily round count. Although he fingered one he found and really liked it. I'm working on him though. I know he will hate the HK, but he doesn't have to shoot it. :thumbs2:
He'll come around if you work on him. It wasn't that long ago I had a 92FS and PT145 and now I have a Para and Kimber. Once I shot my first 1911 I was converted. :lol:

Hmm, given a choice between the two, I'd choose the Kimber
Funny you should mention that. :lol: I own three.

I love my Kimbers. The Eclipse Pro is my favorite currently. I traded a Kimber Ultra Crimson Carry to get the Eclipse. He needed a lighter carry gun and I li It is probably the best shooting out of all four of them. The HK was something with a bigger round count, not by much though at 10+1, but it is still two more before a reload. Considered the USP they had which held more rounds, but this one felt so much better in the hand.

@Matrix68: I bet. I am kicking myself for not purchasing the one someone was selling on here. I would have saved myself some money, but didn't know enough about them yet to jump on it. I was familiar with the name, just not that particular firearm.
You beat me to it. Nice H&K but those sure are nice Kimbers. :drool:
