The Rapide series build stands out with its lightened slide featuring three oblong windows on each side, revealing the gold-tone TiN finish of the match-grade stainless barrel. Front and rear cocking serrations provide confident manipulation while keeping the profile refined and functional.
TruGlo TFX Pro tritium-fiber-optic sights deliver a clear sight picture in varied lighting. The front sight uses a high-visibility orange ring, and the assemblies are marked TG-H3. This sighting setup complements the pistol's single-action 1911 platform and precise barrel with a 1:16 LH twist.
The stainless steel frame and slide wear Kimber's black KimPro II finish. Ergonomics are dialed in with a checkered frontstrap and mainspring housing, a flared magwell funnel for fast reloads, and gray/black G10 WavZ pattern grips. The frame presents a clean profile with no accessory rail.
Controls and internals are classic 1911 with modern touches: a skeletonized rowel (commander-style) hammer, a skeletonized V-cut trigger, and both a thumb safety and beavertail grip safety. The barrel hood is stamped .45 ACP, and the frame marking reads Yonkers NY USA. This model is manufactured in the USA and identified by Kimber part number 3000383.
