Kimber Introduces Mid-Size .45 ACP Professional Duty Pistol

Yonkers, New York, April 1, 2008 - Kimber® has announced the introduction of a specialized mid-size .45 ACP with the same features as pistols built for law enforcement and tactical teams. The Pro TLE II™ features a 4-inch bushingless bull barrel fitted directly to the slide without the aid of a bushing. Both frame and slide are machined from steel. Overall weight makes this pistol easier to control under recoil, as does the standard length of the grip.

Standard features include Meprolight® three dot (green) night sights mounted in dovetails machined into the slide, 30 lines-per-inch frontstrap checkering and match grade barrel, chamber and trigger group. Similar versions of this pistol are available in stainless steel, with Crimson Trace Lasergrips and with Picatinny rails for light mounting. Suggested retail prices are $1,035 - $1,275.

Information and product videos are available at www.kimberamerica.com. Information on firearms, accessories and dealer locations will be mailed to those sending $2 to Kimber, One Lawton Street, Yonkers, NY 10705 or calling (800) 880-2418.
