Kimber Chooses Southern Hospitality Over New York Contempt for Corporate Headquarters
New York Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo has done it again. His continued hostility and contempt toward Second Amendment supporters and the lawful firearm industry means another storied New York-based company is taking steps out the door and heading to friendlier and sunnier skies. All this as the industry sees record sales of firearms and a growing diversity among gun owners.
In a move not surprising to industry watchers, Kimber Manufacturing, headquartered in Yonkers, N.Y., announced it will officially move its corporate headquarters to Troy, Ala., continuing its years-long shift away from Gov. Cuomo’s antigun atmosphere.
Gov. Cuomo is likely pleased with the news of these particular jobs leaving his state.

Does this mean that all of those who bought the Kimbers that were marked "Yonkers, NY" will have collectors items?

Somewhat unrelated, we had to send my girlfriend's Kimber Custom II 9mm back for FTE. It was unshootable. Started with every once in a while and quickly became every single shot. Did the whole return thing, got it shipped out, and within a week it was being shipped back. Had it out once to shoot and it shot perfect. So shout out to their customer service for making it right and making it right quick.
They adjusted the ejector, reamed the barrel, and polished the ramp. Better than new.

Waiting for the Gunbroker auctions with ridiculous prices and the seller stating, "I know what I have?"
