Kimber

Kimber is expanding their highly stylized line of Rapide pistols with new Rapide Dawn and Rapide Scorpius full-size 1911 and Micro 9 compacts chambered for 9mm Luger.

Kimber America, a company famous for its wide range of handguns for backup and concealed carry, is proud to introduce the new R7 Mako micro-compact.

If you love America, 1911’s, and think plastic pistols should be melted into Tupperware, then the Kimber Micro 9 Rapide Black Ice just might be the EDC you’ve been dreaming of. It’s small, thin, light, smooth, and absolutely gorgeous.

The Micro 9 is essentially a “Honey, I shrunk the 1911” design, with a few subtle changes. It’s available in a rainbow of bright metallic finishes that are – if nothing else – very eye catching!

The Rapide Black Ice maintains the basic Micro 9 feature set but adds all the hot Black Ice improvements and tweaks.

In my opinion, the K6 series of revolvers are some of the best personal defense revolvers on the market. In a world of polymer wonder nines, I appreciate that Kimber has dedicated significant resources to designing and manufacturing a solid wheelgun.

Kimber Manufacturing’s soon-to-be former headquarters in Yonkers will move to Troy, Alabama, where they’re hiring more people.

The K6 Deep Cover fills the bill in a lot of ways. The next time you are in your local shop, give one a serious look. You might wind up going home with one.

“Much like all Americans, Kimber will be challenged by these closures,” Grogan said. “But no one here has any doubt that we will all soon be back in production and stronger than ever.”
