Our Assessment: For 40 years, Kimber has been producing some of the finest 1911-style pistols in America and this is no exception. This particular pistol comes packed with features such as front and rear slide serrations, extended beavertail grip safety, full-length stainless guide-rod, skeletonized hammer and trigger, checkered front and backstraps, and of course, Kimber quality. This example is in Fine Plus condition showing signs of light use and comes with one magazine. This is a beautiful gun in high condition and would make an excellent addition to any collection, but where it will really shine is in competition shooting such as single-stack division in USPSA or bowling pin matches.
