Kimber Stainless TLE/RL II
Today, law enforcement officers around the country, including such elite units as LAPD SWAT, carry Kimber Customs. Military units with the option to chose pistols that can actually do the job trust Kimber with their lives. American shooters have made Kimber the best selling brand of 1911 by a huge margin.
A stainless steel version of the pistol carried by LAPD SWAT with a tactical rail
The Stainless TLE/RL II .45 ACP is a stainless steel version of the duty pistol carried by LAPD SWAT, plus it has the added advantage of an integral Kimber Tactical Rail. Critical custom shop upgrades such as Meprolight night sights and 30 lines-per-inch checkering are also included. Based on the Kimber Stainless II model, it has features like match grade barrel, chamber, trigger and barrel bushing, along with a frame and slide carefully machined from stainless steel for additional resistance to the elements. A 1911 fi ts almost any size hand and points naturally for faster and more accurate shooting, an advantage that is impossible to overstate. The single-stage trigger breaks at 4–5 pounds without the creep and overtravel common to other designs, and the 1911 safety system has never been equaled. Combined with the authority of the great .45 ACP cartridge, there is no better pistol to carry for duty or use for home defense than the Kimber Stainless TLE/RL II.
