Personally, I find it a bit on the heavier side for everyday carry, but it’s not a dealbreaker. It’s nice for outdoor use, though!

I appreciate that the Kimber Camp Guard has a consistent performance. It’s reliable, but I do wish it had a more ergonomic design for extended use.
I understand that concern! Have you tried any lighter options, and how do they compare?
From my experience, it takes a little getting used to but becomes very comfortable after a few days. So definitely give it a fair shot!
True! The learning curve can make a difference, especially when you’re in the field. How’s its accuracy during practice?
I’ve had great accuracy with the Camp Guard. It’s built for precision, which is definitely a plus for outdoor adventures.
I just want to add that while it feels great to some, others might find it cumbersome. Everyone’s experience may vary!

Absolutely! As long as it fits your needs, that’s what matters most. Plus, we all love a bit of variety, right?
I’ve had my Kimber Camp Guard for over a year now, and I can say it’s quite durable. The maintenance is straightforward; I usually clean it after every few uses, which seems to keep it in great shape.
That’s great to hear, jacqueline99! I was worried the maintenance might be too high for regular outdoor trips.
Overall, I think the durability is impressive. I’ve been hiking in tough conditions with mine and haven’t had any major issues. Just remember to keep it clean to maintain its performance.

I just stick with basic gun oil and cleaning rags. Works well for me!
I’ve had mine for about six months, and it hasn’t let me down yet. The key is regular maintenance. It’s part of the routine that keeps it in top condition.
No rust problems here! I keep mine oiled, even in humid conditions. Just make sure to wipe it down after use, especially if it was raining.

I sometimes wonder if the finishes on these guns are really as tough as they claim. Have any of you tested it long enough to see any wear?
After a year, there’s only minor wear on mine. It’s held up surprisingly well given the terrain I hike!
I guess with any gear, maintenance is key. If you want it to last, don’t skip cleaning! Any tips for making the cleaning process quicker?

A good tip is to use a bore snake for quick cleaning after a day out. It saves a lot of time!
Definitely! I use it too, and it makes a huge difference in my cleaning routine.
