Gunsmithing Kimber 84M accuracy problems
Re: Kimber 84M accuracy problems I don't know why their corporate philosophy isn't 'We make good rifles and we'll do what it takes to convince you'. I was drinking that Kimber Kool-aid too...except I got a batch that Jim Jones brewed up and gave to his folks in South America!!!- rcr

Gunsmithing Kimber 84M accuracy problems
Re: Kimber 84M accuracy problems Gman, You have articulated my exact feelings. I can't figure out why they wouldn't want to honor it period. The amount of time, energy and $$ it would cost them to put a rifle back in my hands that will shoot 1 1/2 groups will be trivial. Even if they just...- rcr

Re: Kimber 84M accuracy problems Guys I really appreciate the feedback... I'll tell you, the smell of the oiled wood, the balance, the checkering...it is intoxicating. I think think that is what gave me the feeling like I wanted to vomit. I'll give Kimber the benefit of the doubt and try...- rcr

Gunsmithing Kimber 84M accuracy problems
I bought a new Kimber 84M Classic in 7mm-08 to celebrate getting back from Iraq a month ago. Unfortunately it doesn't shoot worth a shit. I had heard that this was a periodic problem with the Kimbers and that because of their dainty actions and firing pin springs may be prone to misfires but...- rcr
