    Both are decent guns, but I'd have to give the edge to the Springfield.

    So I purchased a Springfield Long Beach Operator 1911. I installed a Surefire X400 on the rail. I had to really tighten down the clamp and the X400 is sturdy like a rock. Here are some pics:

    ...and I am so impressed with the fit and finish of the TRP compared to that Kimber. Springfield TRP is amazing for the money! Do yourself a huge favor and jump on a TRP.

    Well, I have very little experience with Kimber. However, my mother has a kimber pro carry 1911 and the horrific break in period that you speak of is not all that horrific but still worse than others. If I were you I would go with the TRP, no real sound reasoning behind it. I just find the TRP to be a far more superior gun than anything Kimber puts out. I've had the opportunity to shoot a TRP a few times and each time left me more and more impressed with the functionality of the gun. Just my two cents.
