My low review rating is for the quality of this handgun. I used wilson combat and kimber magazines from the start and had failure to fully feed with every magazine for the first 400 rounds. Cleaned after each 100 rounds and added oil and tried gun grease with no luck. I had to sand down the feed ramp to get somewhat reliable feeding. After that gun began cycling about 100 rounds at a time before failing to feed. After 800 rounds, grip panel bushings had torn out of lower frame, and also noticed lower frame had began erroding away enough to allow quite a bit of slide movement. I am no gunsmith and may have had the 1 bad one of 1000, but I hated that I bought it enough to type out this review.","textLength":791,"csFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"reviewedFlag":true,"autoModerated":true,"published":true,"incentivized":false,"upVotes":0,"downVotes":0,"orderId":null,"dimensions":[{"type":1,"dimensionId":3,"dimensionLabel":"Value","id":7,"code":"VAL01","label":null,"value":1},{"type":1,"dimensionId":4,"dimensionLabel":"Durability","id":12,"code":"DUR01","label":null,"value":1},{"type":1,"dimensionId":5,"dimensionLabel":"Quality","id":17,"code":"QUAL1","label":null,"value":1}],"responses":[],"tags":[],"media":{"photo":[{"id":67336,"type":"photo","caption":"","imageType":"jpeg","width":3060,"height":4080,"locale":"en_US","published":true,"dateCreated":"2025-02-08T22:05:29-05:00","normalUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/media/TXOE2FrZzlhkSdesite/db6bb3681b9af03a22748c8bd44a1699_1739070320038_0_L1000.jpeg","thumbnailUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/media/TXOE2FrZzlhkSdesite/db6bb3681b9af03a22748c8bd44a1699_1739070320038_0_PZ320.jpeg","originalUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/media/TXOE2FrZzlhkSdesite/db6bb3681b9af03a22748c8bd44a1699_1739070320038_0.jpeg","ipViolationFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"offensiveFlag":false,"spamFlag":false,"offTopicFlag":false,"tags":[]},{"id":67337,"type":"photo","caption":"","imageType":"jpeg","width":3060,"height":4080,"locale":"en_US","published":true,"dateCreated":"2025-02-08T22:05:29-05:00","normalUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/media/TXOE2FrZzlhkSdesite/7d6f23e20a4b17de7264e92c57c7adba_1739070320038_1_L1000.jpeg","thumbnailUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/media/TXOE2FrZzlhkSdesite/7d6f23e20a4b17de7264e92c57c7adba_1739070320038_1_PZ320.jpeg","originalUrl":"https://images.turnto.com/media/TXOE2FrZzlhkSdesite/7d6f23e20a4b17de7264e92c57c7adba_1739070320038_1.jpeg","ipViolationFlag":false,"inappropriateFlag":false,"offensiveFlag":false,"spamFlag":false,"offTopicFlag":false,"tags":[]}],"video":[],"audio":[]},"user":{"nickName":null,"firstName":"Brandon","lastName":"N","emailAddress":"[email protected]","externalId":null,"city":null,"state":null,"country":null,"ageRange":null,"badge":null,"shopperProfiles":[]},"reviewedDate":"2025-02-11T02:38:53-05:00","purchaseDate":null,"dateCreated":"2025-02-08T22:06:58-05:00","customData":[],"incentiveType":null,"campaign":null,"deviceFingerprint":null,"topics":[],"catalogItems":[{"sku":"1412-3700693","title":"Kimber Custom LW Shadow Ghost 1911 45 ACP Pistol","url":"https://www.scheels.com/p/1412-3700693","category":"semi-automatic-pistols","reviewCount":5,"ratingCount":5,"averageRating":3.8,"ratingBreakdown":{"1":1,"2":0,"3":0,"4":2,"5":2},"active":true,"attributes":[]}]},{"id":4709670,"locale":"en_US","rating":4,"title":"Great feeling gun","text":"Like the feel of this gun.

This classic pistol features a modernized design in the form of black rubber grips with diamond checkering, and an aluminum frame to reduce weight. Other features include a blackout finish on the smaller parts such as the magazine release and pins, and white dot rear sights with a red fiber optic front sight is included to enhance accuracy. As with all of Kimber’s 1911s, the LW Shadow Ghost is equipped with a match grade stainless steel barrel and a match grade trigger.\n\nFeatures:\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Aluminum Frame\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Blackout small parts\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Black rubber grips with diamond checkering\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Red fiber-optic front sight\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Match grade stainless steel barrel\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\nSpecifications:\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Caliber: .45 ACP\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Barrel Length: 5"\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Slide Finish: Black\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Frame Finish: Silver (aluminum)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Grips: Black rubber with diamond checkering\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Sights: White dot rear sights + Red fiber optic front sight\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Safety: Grip safety + thumb safety\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Action: Semi automatic - single action\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Magazine Capacity: 8 rounds\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Part #: 3700693\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>UPC: 669278376936\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n"
