Purchased a LNIB K6s for $700 out the door. Excellent trigger and about $200 less than a new one. The maintenance section of the owner’s manual only covers how to clean the revolver. Nothing about lubrication of the lock-work so I called Kimber and spoke with “Dawn”. She had no idea what I meant by “lock-work”. We had to go to page 54 of the owner’s manual to get her to understand that the parts I was referring to were under the side plate...item no. 5 in the diagram. Long silence...”have to talk to one of my co-workers.” The answer: “We can’t contradict the manual. Since the manual doesn’t say anything about lubrication of the parts under the side plate, we have no opinion or answer to your question.” SERIOUSLY??? Good thing the diagram on page 54 had the parts numbered or I’m sure I would still be speaking with “Dawn”. As for me, I’m gonna give the parts under item 5 of the diagram a shot of Birchwood & Casey synthetic gun oil...don’t think running one dry does any good in the long run. As for “Dawn”: The manual doesn’t say anything about taking a break and going to the Ladies restroom either. Sure hope you can figure that one out on your own!
