I would have started with the mags which you already did and the spring, you weren't limp wristing. changed to Miltec (best lubricant out there, used it in Iraq and will never use anything else), the Hydra shocks work better I'm assuming because of the extra power I'm guessing or the actual shape of the bullet itself. The only thing I can think of is that there may be something out of tune with the barrel itself when it goes to chamber the next round or for some reason a rapid increase in temperature is causing the barrel to expand and contract maybe causing something equivalent to a dry bolt seizure going on with the round itself. Like I said earlier you covered all the normal fixes and then some. If it is headspacing or something like that though its gonna cost even more. Isn't there some kind of warranty on those Kimbers?
The old Colt 1911's had a single piece firing pin which did in fact have accidental discharges. I have the model 1991 and in that model it has a two piece firing pin so if the hammer would go forward or if something would strike the pin and the safety is on only the rear part of the pin actually gets hit and the forward part that strikes the primer doesnt get touched.
