While just about any high-quality premium ammo will run the gun well, Kimber recommends ammo from three manufacturers. The slide release and ambidextrous safety are in the same spot and easily manipulated. If you're a 1911 shooter, the Solo's controls will be very familiar to you. Even with the new premium ammo produced these days, I'd much rather launch a 9mm round when the need arises. Kahr Arms sued Colt over the offset barrel lug design, so the Pony is no longer produced. Kimber's Solo Carry reminds me a lot of the Colt Pony in its size and general look. KimPro II and a number of other new high-tech finishes protect you from the job of continual maintenance against rust and from having gun oil all over your clothing. Often we wear them next to our body where the salts from perspiration rub off on the gun's finish causing rust. Salt is a major concern for a concealed gun. KimPro II is a premium coating that's self-lubricating and extremely resistant to the elements and salt. The aluminum frame is coated with Kimber's KimPro II treatment. Kimber's new Solo even looks as good as it shoots. After all, it's not a sniper rifle, but the accuracy of this little gun is really uncanny. OK, maybe that's overkill in barrel specifications for a gun with a 2.67-inch barrel. It is 2.67 inches long, has a 1/10 twist and 6 lands. The Solo Carry's barrel is also manufactured from stainless steel. The gun is only 5.5 inches long and 3.9 inches in height, which adds to the concealability. The slide is manufactured from stainless steel and the frame from aluminum. It slides into a pocket holster in your jacket or pants pocket or in an ankle holster and you'd be hard pressed to see any printing, as the gun is only 1.2 inches wide. It fits into the palm of your hand and weighs only 17 ounces, making it very easily concealed. Kimber has built this gun from the ground up and has six new patents pending on the engineering. ![]() Get end of the week work reports emailed to you, highlighting areas where you were most productive, including what tasks you finished.

Here, in a log cabin, Mary Ann was born, and lived during her early childhood.

And even though they may violate flag code, it’s important to remember that the flag code isn’t actually enforced (just encouraged). The thin line flags aren’t inherently bad. ![]() So, with all the controversy behind them, is using these flags bad? It depends on your personal views and your intentions. That’s exactly what the flag stands against in the first place! Altering the flag in any way, shape, or form violates US Flag Code and is seen as disrespectful by staunch patriots.Īnother more recent concern is that supremacist groups have adopted the thin blue line flag-not to support our first responders, but to further their own agenda and encourage violence. The first problem some people have with them is that they’re deliberate modifications of the American flag. There are two main controversies associated with the thin line flags. Now that you know the history behind the thin blue and red line flags, you’re probably wondering what the controversy behind them is about. The color of the thin line represents a particular agency: Not long after the thin blue line flag was made, other flags were created to honor those from other first responder agencies. The Thin Red Line and Other Thin Line Flags It was adopted by law enforcement in the 1980s to symbolize the bravery of law enforcement officers.Įventually, the phrase was adapted into a flag that people could display to show their support for law enforcement. Today, the phrase is used to refer to the concept of the police being the “thin line” that holds society together. The phrase was officially coined in the 1900s when the US Army marched into battle in its blue uniforms. The thin blue line is an allusion to the Crimean War, where the British regiment “The Thin Red Line” famously held off a charge by the Russian cavalry. Wondering how these flags-and the controversy behind them-came to be? Here’s the history behind the thin blue and red line flags. These two modified American flags were created to show support for first responders. These flags have received some negative press lately, but neither of them was designed with bad intentions.
