Default WTS: Novak BHP/ 10-8 Kimber *SPF*

Sunday bump and new gun added - trade deal fell through:

From my original ad:

Selling a catch and release - not because it is not a cool gun, but because something else caught my eye.

10-8 Performance is a company created by Hilton Yam, a federal agent who actually carried and used the 1911 platform. They sell parts developed by Yam, who also hand-built a very few 1911s. These few guns are in incredible demand.

He and his company worked with Kimber to create the Code 3 package, in a
very limited run. They all have a special serial number, and were built on Series I Kimber's.
The 10-8 parts used include: bushing, recoil spring plug and Govt short guide rod, brass bead front sight and U-shape notch rear sight, slide stop, tool steel bobbed hammer and sear, mag catch, flat trigger, G10 grips and grip screws. Bar stock extractor and firing pin stop. Front strap and steel flat mainspring housing checkered by the famous Pete Single. Hand tuned for reliability. Parkerized finish.

Gun in excellent condition. I have detail stripped, cleaned and lubed, but not fired.

Comes with two McCormick magazines in the original Kimber plastic case.

Asking $1,600.00 shipped to your FFL.

I spoke with the Kimber Custom Shop today, who built this series. Only 43 were made and delivered to 10-8; none sold through regular dealer channels. Pretty rare !
