Kimber’s CS Response to my service inquiry. This seems to be what the hand fitting looks like.
Good morning!
The area you are referring to appears as though there are some file marks from fitment of the firearm. Since these slides are DLC coated, on occasion when they are in final fitment to the frame, it becomes necessary to file down the DLC coating around the frame rails. This should not cause you any functional issues at all.
Burr wear? Kimber 2k11 OR
I put about 150 rounds of mix 115 through it. Slide still feels smooth, but this looks like a burr to me. Recoil assembly doesn’t show anything to note. Ideas? I’m not ready to jump on the warranty unless this can lead to any future problems. Hoping I shot out any burrs today.
