Our Assessment: From Kimber’s website: “CDP pistols have it all. Night sights, ambidextrous thumb safety and 30-lines-per-inch checkering on the front strap and under the trigger guard. Match grade barrel, stainless steel slide and double diamond rosewood grips. They even have a 7075-T7 aluminum frame with KimPro II finish and Carry melt treatment for rounded and blended edges that will not snag. Five .45 ACP models weighing just 25 to 31 ounces are offered. Kimber makes some of the finest 1911 pistols manufactured today, and nowhere is quality more important than in a pistol carried for personal defense.” This pistol looks to have been shot seldom and taken well care of in the interim. There are only light scuffs and wear marks from takedown and use. Kimber has an extraordinary track record and a very helpful customer service branch. In a world of uncertainty, .45 ACP has proven to be a very certain solution to bad guys and steel targets. Please see our pictures and good luck!
