Read about it on 1911forum earlier here's the link to a small write up about it.

Retail is supposed to be in the $600 range. Not a pocket pistol or 9mm fan personally....but it's something I think I could get into. Kinda reminds me of another old Colt: http://www.google.com/m/search?site=images&source=mog&hl=en&gl=us&client=safari&q=colt%2032%20automatic%20pistol#i=22

Vans had one in stock today. Asked to see it. I really liked it. Had a very nice, smooth trigger pull, much lighter than a DAO gun. It's longer and heavier than a 1911's trigger pull, but not much. The slide was not hard to pull back like most SC 9mms(like a Kel-tec). It had nice white dot sights. Just a sharp gun. Would be a great back up, in a pocket holster.

Guys I shot a solo about 2 weeks ago and had terrible luck with it. I personally shot about 100 rounds through it and it jammed jammed and jammed, even with ball ammo, this model still has some buggs. Subsequently I just traded a S&W J frame for a Kahr, and it ran 200 rounds with absolutly no jams. Just wanted to share my experience.

ha like i said in another thread...i think you forgot the golden rule of a new kimber: replace all springs with Wolff XP springs before first firing. but being such a new gun i doubt there are any replacements out there but factory springs(which are wolff, but not xp).

I'll hold off till they get the kinks worked out of them for sure!

if you noticed the rounds it was tested with they are heavy and hot... the gun maybe tuned for a certian type ammo

I shot the solo with a professional gun writer, he tried many different configuration s of ammo, light stuf, heavy stuff, FMJ, JHP, and other stuff. LOL it jammed the least with Corbon super hot stuff. Like I said before, I wanted this little beauty to run flawlessly, it didn't.
