Kimber Custom II GFO 45 ACP 5" 8+1 Stainless Steel Slide G-10 Grips

The Kimber Custom II GFO delivers enhanced grip control and reliability in a full-size 1911 platform chambered in 45 ACP. This pistol combines traditional 1911 craftsmanship with modern G-10 grip panels and front strap checkering for superior handling in demanding conditions.

What Makes This Different

The GFO (Green Fiber Optic) model features Kimber's proprietary front sight system with a bright green fiber optic insert that gathers ambient light for faster target acquisition. The stainless steel slide paired with a matte black frame creates corrosion resistance while maintaining a professional appearance. Unlike standard 1911s with basic grips, this model includes aggressive G-10 grip panels that provide consistent control even when wet or during extended shooting sessions.

Key Features

• Green fiber optic front sight with traditional rear sight for rapid target acquisition
• G-10 grip panels with 30 LPI front strap checkering for enhanced control
• Stainless steel slide with matte black anodized aluminum frame
• Match grade barrel and trigger system for consistent accuracy
• 8+1 capacity with included stainless steel magazine
• Beveled magazine well for faster reloads
• Full-length guide rod and recoil spring system

The Custom II GFO maintains sub-2-inch groups at 25 yards with quality ammunition, making it suitable for competitive shooting, law enforcement duty, and home defense applications. The fiber optic sight system performs effectively in low-light conditions while the G-10 grips maintain their texture through thousands of rounds. The stainless steel construction resists environmental corrosion during extended carry or storage.
