I think the WELL WORN Kimber looks the best.

That was my dad's. Unknown number of rounds through that bad boy. He used it as a firearms instructor for a decade. The well worn colt was his EDC.

It's a keeper!

Ruger developed the modern casting process many years ago, you seldom hear of any Ruger falling apart so I think that says the process is pretty good.
its kind of like MIM parts, some people don't like them just because its a modern process.
its all about the quality of the MIM /cast part and how well its finished/fitted.
personally I will take all the Ruger 1911's that anyone wants to give me.

I've always liked Rugers, and love their revolvers. In a 1911 I think I would prefer a forged, from all I've been reading, but I agree I would gladly take a Ruger. I've seen and read nothing but great reviews on them.

Ruger builds a fine 1911. For me personally though for the same price I can get a quality forged gun and as such don't see myself ever buying a cast Ruger 1911.
