There may have also been a different recoil lug fitted. In the early model if knocked it might move to the uncocked position? Something like that.

Reply Edit Del All Kimber of Oregon A local dealer has a model 82 Kimber serial number 61 I think it has a 20 in. Hi, I purchased a Kimber Model 82 in.22 Magnum today, it has a Leupold Vari-x III 2.5x8 scope and the barrel is marked ' KIMBER of Oregon, INC. There was also something to do with the bolt (on the Hornets) when it was withdrawn from the action.

Aoe 3 Warchiefs Crack here.Ģ7 August 2012, 10:59 Oz3006My understanding was that improvements to the B model was to do with a faster lock time and smoother and lighter cocking arrangement. Normally, I would keep the higher grade rifle and sell the other, but in this instance the early rifle may be as/more valuable? Glad to have opinions. The early model is a Classic, while the 'B' model is a Custom Classic with its stock upgrades. In terms of accuracy, they run dead even with one another. I own WAY too many Hornets and would consider selling one or the other of these. The magazines are identical and interchangeable. Both have outstanding triggers (which is one reason I haven't bothered to look under the wood as there has been no necessity to access the triggers). 26 August 2012, 19:50 StonecreekYes, I had gathered that the one with the 'B' suffix was one of the 'B models'.Īs far as improvements, I haven't had either out of the stock to look at the triggers or other components, but the only difference I've been able to observe is in the bolt shrouds and bolt handle shape. I've been able to acquire several Kimber of Oregon rifles and like them a great deal, but I'm simply not up on the subtle differences within the model lines. Is there anything particularly unique about one with such an early number? I also own a Kimber Model 84 Classic with a SN in the 300's. Despite this difference, the bolts will interchange without difficulty (not that there would be any reason to do so.) Can someone tell me the difference in the one without the SN suffix, and the one with the suffix with the letter 'B'? They appear identical except for a very slight difference in the bolt handle and bolt shroud. One has a serial number of 'Hxxx', while the other has a SN of 'HxxxxB'. Hey, you Kimber of Oregon Experts, a question:I own two K of O Model 82 Hornets.
