Allegedly
I recently purchased a used Kimber 22lr conversion kit from a guy off of TexasGunTrader. He said he had no issues with it. The unit looked almost new. Most of what I've seen and heard about suggests that the kit can be used on different brands of 1911's. I tried a Springfield RO and a Ruger SR1911. Both times the slide would bind because the fit was too tight. I really don't want to grind the aluminum slide and I'm sure as hell not grinding on my host's guns frame.
I called Kimber and they want me to send the unit back to them at my expense so they can see whether or not it is within spec. Has anyone else had fitment issues with Kimbers kits? Solutions? I really don't want to have to go out and buy a Kimber 1911 just to use this kit **
not that I am opposed to owning another 1911 **
