How does a Glock compare to a Kimber M9?
"Better" is a relative term. It's all in what your exact application for it is. The Kimber is more easily concealable than the other two (except for the Glock 26), and uses a striker fired action similar to the Glock. However, if you have particularly large hands, the Kimber may be less-than-ideal vs. a mid or full sized Glock or the Beretta. My main concern with the Kimber and Glock, particularly for concealed carry, is the lack of safety features, with the trigger lock being the only safety feature. Which is why I personally prefer the Springfield XD series. The Beretta.. depends on what model you get. If you get the actual M9, you get fixed sights (same as with the Kimber or Glock). If you want adjustable sights, they're available with other variants of the Beretta 92. On the downside concerning the Beretta, the safety is a bit awkward, and the hammer drop/block feature doesn't allow you to carry it "cocked and locked", the way you could with the earlier models of the Beretta 92, which had the frame mounted safety (this feature is still found on the Taurus PT92 and PT99 models, which are manufactured under licence from Beretta).
Ultimately, what it comes to is that the best one is what's best for you. Read some reviews, rent some at a range which does handgun rentals, and make your decision based on that. Be wary of gun shops and what they recommend - they'll often try to push you towards what they're a sponsored dealer of.

What is a Kimber custum TLE 11 1911 pistol 95 percent good worth?
It probably depends most on you. If you trade it in on another gun or sell it to a gun shop, you will get less than if you sell it yourself. They are all going to factor in their profit (understandably) and give you that much less. The upside is they will probably buy it off you that day. Selling it yourself will probably get your more money but may take longer and become a little more work. I bought mine in the spring for $1000 and saw they went up a little bit since then. I would check Buds or Guns America to see what they are going for used, that should give you a pretty good idea.
What will a Kimber 1911 pro carry with crimson trace grips and a magna ported barrel bring?

All together they are a good quality 1911 pistol, although I have heard some claims that they are too tightly fitted and may jam after a certain number of rounds are fired or when you get dirt in the action which means that their quality could make them a little fussy but if your not in a combat situation and just using it for self defense or as a target gun then there just as good as any other 1911, although i think you can get the same quality in a cheaper gun and that's why I won't buy one I'd go for a cheaper 1911 (in the 650-900) range such as the colt series 70 $900 and the new Remington 1911 r1 $650 or the Springfield mil spec 700$ any of these are just as good as a kimber and at a cheaper price

Dan Wesson only has a conversion kit for the 75' Kadet, not for the Razorback 10MM 1911. Does Kimber have a conversion kit in a .22LR for my Dan Wesson 1911, 10MM ?
Are kimber handguns safe to dry fire?
It is "safe" to fire, but it will eventually mess up the firing pin.
