Kimber Rapide Scorpius 10mm: Initial Impressions & Disassembly

I just got my hands on the Kimber Rapide Scorpius . In this review I will discuss my initial impressions, features I like and oddities I noticed. I will also field strip and reassemble the firearm.

Awesome!!! Been trying to put mine back together from other videos but they did not explain as well as you did. Thanks

9 rounds in a 1911 10mm mag is normal. Tripp Research sells 10 rd 10mm 1911 mags. Also the same with 9mm 1911 mags holding 10 rounds. Now ya know.

Thanks. It just surprised me when they said only 8, and 9 went in so easy. 😂

Have you shot this Kimber yet if so how did it run straight out the box?

[@HotLeadNHardware]

I did. I read there would be a break on period, but I had no malfunctions other than one that was my fault. I bumped the safety on, just a hair, while adjusting my grip and it stopped firing and the slide would not open. Took a minute to figure out what it was.

@@HotLeadNHardware ok Thanks

How’s the slide to frame fit

[@HotLeadNHardware]

It fits really snug. There is absolutely no wobble. Yet still easy to rack

Wilson mags 9+1

I might need to give those a shot.
