Custom Shop Family

The best of the best.

Pistols from the Kimber Custom Shop are equaled in quality only by 1911s from a handful of America's finest custom pistolsmiths. Even then, Kimber pistols cost substantially less and are almost always immediately available.

Raptor pistols have flat top slides with a back-cut row of scales, along with scaled serrations in the gripping areas. Scaled frontstraps and logo grip panels continue the theme (pat. pending) but each Raptor has unique features that set it apart from the others. The Ultra Raptor II™ is an all-matte black carry pistol with a 3-inch ramped bushingless bull barrel and lightweight aluminum frame. The Pro Raptor II is also matte black, but has a 4-inch barrel and full-length steel frame. The Raptor II and Stainless Raptor II have 5-inch barrels, polished flats and matte curves. The Grand Raptor II is also a full-size pistol, and the polished flats of its stainless steel frame and matte slide make it stand out. All Raptor pistols have an extended ambidextrous thumb safety, bumped beavertail grip safety and night sights.

For 2008, the Gold Combat II, Gold Combat RL II and Stainless Gold Combat II have been dramatically improved. Slides now wear serrated flat tops, scalloped French shoulders, fine cocking serrations and night sights with cocking shoulder. A new 5-inch bushingless deep-crowned match grade barrel, 24 LPI frontstrap checkering and herringbone micarta grips are also standard. Other premium features have been retained.

The Grand Raptor II .45 ACP is a striking two-tone pistol loaded with Custom Shop cosmetic treatments and performance features.	Raptor pistols have a back-cut feathered row of scales running the length of the flat top slide, along with scaled grip serrations.
	Zebra wood Raptor grips feature the Kimber logo surrounded by a bordered scale pattern. Grand Raptor grips are fashioned from rosewood.

The new Ultra RCP II - Refined Carry Pistol - is an ultra-compact .45 ACP with unique features that reduce weight, decrease profile and all but eliminate the possibility of snagging. Hammer, thumb safety, slide release and magazine release button are dramatically downsized, frame and mainspring housing are rounded and blended, and a unique sighting trough is machined into the top of the slide. The Ultra RCP II™ is the finest 1911 pistol for backup carry or maximum concealment available today.

The Super Match II .45 ACP is Kimber's finest all-around pistol. Equally suited for action shooting or accuracy competition, many of them are carried for personal protection. Each Super Match II is guaranteed to have fired a five shot, 25-yard group measuring one inch or less center-to-center.
