This topic is a brief but informative overview of the risk management concepts you will encounter in the FRM Program.

Early Kimber's were mfg. At the Kimber plant in Clackamas, Oregon. A few years later, Kimber bought Jericho Precision, and moved mfg. Of 1911's to this plant in Yonkers, NY. There are a few differences in the Clackamas vs. Yonkers models. Clackamas Kimbers (and I'm talking the base 'Classic Custom' model here) use an early CMC carbon/plastic trigger, have a 2-line inscription on the ejection port side of the slide, and come with wood grips as standard.

Some of these guns had reported reliability problems, but many were excellent. IMO, the best manufactured base model Kimbers are the ones made early on after the move to the Yonkers, NY facility. These are stamped Yonkers on the frame, still had the carbon trigger, and black rubber grips.

Kimber Manufacturing is an American company that designs, manufactures, and distributes small arms such as M1911 pistols, Solo pistols and rifles. The USA Shooting Team, Marines assigned to Special Operations Command, and the LAPD SWAT team [1] use Kimber pistols.

The ones I have owned and shot from this time were tight yet smooth, and worked extremely well. Also available at this time was a 'Classic Walnut' inscribed model, that came with beautiful walnut grips.

The 'Royal Classic' models I have shot from this period of time were also excellent. In my personal experience, the later-produced of the 'original' series (use an aluminum trigger) guns have tended to show a touch of variation in quality, most notably barrel fit, slide fit, and trigger pull. Some I've shot have been outstanding, while others have actually been a little sloppy! For instance, I was interested in a full-size 'original-series' CDP just slightly over a year ago, but passed on one particular example, as it rattled like a Colt when you shook it, and had a relatively poor (for Kimber) barrel fit.

Regarding the Series II guns, I'm not qualified to comment here, as I don't (and won't) own one. Plenty of threads to read on this topic, however. These thoughts are based only on my experiences.

Others who handle these guns on a full-time basis will certainly have more exposure (and thus better qualified comments) than myself! I should have said I have one of the first 100 guns, the serial number is K00109x. The frame may have been made in Yonkers, however it is stamped 'Kimber. Made in Yonkers or not, I would imagine that any Kimber stamped with the Clackamas mark would have some sort of collector value.

My pistol is the only gun assembled at Clackamas shop, other Clackamas marked pistols I am told, were built in Yonkers. It is a 'Classic Model Custom.45 ACP', every part was hand selected, fit, tuned and finished in Clackamas. It was built for a magazine article, and to be the personal firearm for the master gunsmith at the Clackamas facility.

The gun has never fired with the exception of the test fire at the factory. I'm guessing a lot more than just a few hundred came from Clackamas or were at least assembled there because mine has all the original style stamping and a stamped serial number of K0068xx. I have seen at least four other Classic Customs with S/N's ranging from as low as K0058xx to as high as K0078xx and all have stamps resembling the early marks you all have described. At any rate, I've shot a few later Yonkers stamped guns but only one of the Series II guns.

As far as Series I goes, I never had any troubles and my personal weapon is passing the 62000 round mark this week after five years.
