Kimber has traveled a rocky road. The original business was called Kimber of Oregon, which operated from 1980 to 1991. It produced beautiful but flawed rifles that were plagued by malfunctions and lack of accuracy. In 1997, a new company called Kimber Manufacturing Inc. was started in Yonkers, New York, by entirely different management, and there is nothing flawed about what they're building. The new Kimber is based out of what has been described as the most modern firearms plant in the world, and benefits from the talents of a gifted Israeli gun designer named Nehemia Sirkis. Kimber chose to first produce Government Model 1911, style .45 automatic pistols, and those have been a raging success. INSET: What Is Kevlar?.
