Kimber ???

I purchased an Kimber Desert Warrior last year. Problem is that it fails to feed, usually when the magazine is near empty (last, two or three rounds) and fails to lock to the rear on a empty magazine. It was my carry gun but I have lost confidence in it for good reason, I am back to carrying my SIG P220. Nothing worse then hearing a click when you know you should hear a bang. I can send it back to the factory but I thought I would post on here first. Kimber wants me to pay for shipping and handling on a pistol that fails to function and cost a thousand bucks. Has anyone else had problems like this. Also on the SIG P220 I had problems with it not locking to the rear on a empty mag but the problem went away after the break in period, Below are some facts.
1. Over two thousand rounds thru it.
2. Happens on all magazines, even different brands.
3. Its not my hands, Shot it one handed from bench rest and still had problems
4. Used different types of ammo.
