OK - please spare me the bashing.

What parts need to be replaced?

"Don't fix what ain't broke."

Having said that, if the chamber is as tight as most Kimbers, it may need to be reamed for maximum reliability.

I just put 1400 rounds through a well use Kimber Classic series I in a
2 day pistol class this past weekend. It ran perfect and it was filthy.

Box stock.

+1 for my Series 1 Kimber (Classic Custom Target).

I'm no 'smith, but I think there are lots of people out there who just HAVE to replace stuff on new products just because people make aftermarket parts. Unless you personally have a need to replace anything, I say let 'em ride.

I have to agree, the Warrior is the only Kimber that I regret selling. It was perfect in function and accuracy. Don't be too worried about the MIM talk on these boards. If it's gonna break, it will do so early in life. Replace with a tool steel part and move on. I didn't like the factory grips but that was the only thing I changed on mine. Enjoy it!
