The Kimber Rapide Scorpius delivers match-grade accuracy with rapid-fire capability through its innovative barrel bushing system and refined trigger mechanism. This full-size 1911 platform combines traditional craftsmanship with modern materials to create a competition-ready pistol that excels in both precision shooting and dynamic applications.
What Makes This Different
The Rapide Scorpius features Kimber's proprietary KimPro II finish that provides superior corrosion resistance compared to standard Parkerizing or bluing.
