I am very close to ordering one.
Find something similar from Springfield Armory. Kimber is over priced and over hyped
4" is as short as you want to go in a 1911. Trust me
They seem to love them or hate them! LOL. I just did get a Springfield TRP and also have a Sig C3 and really like and recommend either. But also have a Kimber Stainless Ultra Raptor 2 and the Eclipse Custom 2 and in my opinion both seem to be just as accurate. Don't think it hurts that their both easy on the eyes also. I say go for it and enjoy!
I have not up to this point just getting into the reloading game.Do you shoot your Sig C3 with reloads? Mine seems to be very picky if the ammo diameter is close to the max. spec. and won't fully chamber. I hate to give up on it, last time I had it at the range, I had really good groups...for me, anyway.
Op, Are you actually thinking of carrying a 1911 as your EDC? If not, it's a waste to buy a sub compact gun just to go out and shoot. They have a specific purpose and place. And range toy isn't one of them IMO.

I would plan on using this as an EDC. I like the 1911 platform and would like to stick with it.
