I purchased a new Kimber Raptor Pro II two weeks ago. The first 150 bullets went through great. I had constant jam and ejection problems the second time at the range. My range time was cut short when the external extractor broke. I fired approximately 70 bullets half of which jammed.
I read the 1911 forum before purchasing and even spoke to Kimber about extractor problems. I was assured that all the negative comments was exagerated. I am very dissatisfied with this gun and now wish I purchased the S&W PD1911. Has anybody else had this experience. Could the problem be the design of the external extractor? Should I ask Kimber to replace the slide with an internal extractor?
