You have heard the siren call and moved to the dark side. Welcome my friend, welcome. Fiendish laughter ensues.

I'm guessing that's a Pro CDP? My first 1911 was a CDP full-size, still have it.

Yes, the KimPro II finish sucks, had mine refinished also. While Kimber was doing that, I had them switch out all the small frame parts from silver to black.
