Are you finding any issues with the 3" barrel; does it stay on target, is it a fussy eater?
Glad you got rid of the stickers...your cred just went up

I haven't had any issues with it. I've only used ball ammo as suggested for break-in. I qualified with it for LEOSA and she was right on the money. By the way, I benched it, and the bullet lays in right where the little dot is. I've only used it a couple of times as my carry. My everyday carry is my (gulp) should I say it? A Kimber Pro Carry. I've had no problems with that as well.

Wow. You must stay around very safe places like, fairy land to carry a Mimber. You know, not having to rely on it to function.

Don't worry I live there too. I carry an Ultra CDP II with a non ramped barrel.

The Mimber Lovers are like woman don't know the difference Between a real 1911 and something you can buy off the Street Corner out of a Hoods Car trunk(Mimber)..............

Ahww come on Chief, I think you'd have better luck picking up a Glock of the street corner then a Mimber.

I have been persuaded to change my opinion on this subject.
