The Kimber Pro Carry II delivers full-size 1911 performance in a compact frame designed for concealed carry and duty use. This California-compliant model combines traditional 1911 reliability with modern manufacturing precision for consistent accuracy and dependable function.
What Makes This Different
Built on Kimber's aluminum frame with a steel slide, the Pro Carry II weighs 28 ounces compared to 39 ounces for all-steel models. The 4-inch barrel provides optimal velocity for .45 ACP ammunition while maintaining a compact 7.7-inch overall length. Factory accuracy testing shows 1.5-inch groups at 25 yards with quality ammunition.
