Kimber Question

I was told today that Kimber doesn't make their slides or frames. I was told that Smith and Wesson makes them. Is this true? I seem to recall that Kimber Glotes about how close their tolerances are and how everything is manufactured under the strictest quality control and on the greatest state of the art equipment. Can you help me? I told the guy I thought he was wrong but now I need to know, if only for my piece of mind.

When Clinton left office they gave him a 21 gun salute. Its a damn shame they all missed....

  What is the difference between a Kimber and a Kimber Custom Shop?
  
  I shot my friend's Kimber Custom Shop Ultra Carry, and I really liked it, but I've never shot any other Kimber to compare it to.
  
  Thanks!

  The series II Kimbers have a new firing pin safety that is (de-)activated by the grip. There is more information at dedicated 1911 forums. There has been negative and positive things written by people about the new safety. I believe that for the most part the safety works fine. I have a NIB series 1 for sale.
