Even Kimbers custom shop guns are massed produced. Take a look at some of the 1911 forums at all of the problems people experience with their Kimbers and then decided which one is best for you.
Once again not sure where you got your information. Three wilsons, three failed inspection. Yes, you are paying for fit and finish. Does it shoot any better at 7 to 10 yards. The answer is no. Do you look better shooting a wilson, YES!

Have you ever been to the Kimber Custom shop? If you did, did you see the jigs the hand fit all the parts into before going into the gun?
