Gold Match models are the finest production 1911 pistols available today. Each wears a classic high polish finish and is fitted with select handcheckered double diamond rosewood grip panels.
Intended for competition as well as carry, they have the Kimber adjustable sight riding low on the slide. The sight blade itself has angled and beveled serrations to deflect glare, and edges are beveled to prevent snags on clothing and holsters. Premium Aluminum Triggers are set to break clean at 3.5-4 pounds without creep or overtravel.
In addition to replacement 10 round magazines, pre-ban 14 round magazines are also available. They are offered for sale (where legal) through Kimber Master Dealers.
Gold Match pistols have the features of the Custom II models along with a match grade barrel that is carefully machined from a single, solid piece of stainless steel. Air gauging verifies endto-end consistency within .001 inch, a final assurance of accuracy.
Following final assembly that includes barrel fitting by hand in the Custom Shop, each pistol is mounted on a special machine that simulates the firing of hundreds of rounds. A Quality Assurance
Inspector then measures critical dimensions to ensure everything meets exacting Kimber standards.
Gold Match pistols rival those made by America’s finest pistolsmiths – at about half the price and without waiting a year for delivery.
Note: Kimber is now offering a fired case with any gun for sales in New York and Maryland. We are charging an extra ten dollars for this option, which will automatically be billed to you if you live in these two states.
