Re: Kimber Caprivi

If you can get one at $2,100 then I agree...Ruger has some competition. DNR Sports has them listed on their website at $2,695 and that's closer to the "street" value I expect to see.

There are apparently some in existence so I don't know why Kimber can't post a photo...on the Outdoor Channel's "Guns & Ammo" show this week Craig Boddington gave a brief review of the new Caprivi. He and one other person shot it and Craig said he liked the 9-pound weight of the gun (which I think is a little heavier than Kimber advertised, but still lighter than the Ruger, I'm sure).

A couple of things I still really like about the Ruger are the integral quarter rib and the the integral scope mounts- out of the way enough that someone like me, who regularly shoots with open sights, can actually use them. I'm not familiar enough with Kimbers and their scope mounting system to know if you can leave bases on the gun and still see the sights.
