Kimber Rapide Dawn .45 ACP 5" 8rd 1911 Pistol

Kimber’s Rapide Dawn brings bold design and custom-grade performance to the powerful 45 ACP 1911 platform.

This full-size 1911 pistol blends beauty and function with aggressive styling and high-performance features. Chambered in 45 ACP with an 8 plus 1 capacity, the Rapide Dawn offers precision, control, and speed with a show-stopping appearance. It is built for serious shooters who want standout looks and match-ready function right out of the box.

At the core is a 5 inch match grade barrel finished in gold TiN (titanium nitride). This hard coating resists wear, reduces friction, and adds a custom appearance. Kimber fits the barrel precisely to the stainless steel slide and frame, ensuring tight lockup and consistent accuracy with every shot.

The slide features Kimber’s signature lightening cuts, reducing weight for faster cycling and quicker follow up shots. Deep serrations at the front and rear make slide manipulation easy in any condition. The bright stainless steel finish adds contrast and reflects the premium quality of this pistol.

The stainless steel frame includes a high sweep beavertail grip safety and front strap checkering for enhanced control under recoil. Black and gray G10 grips provide a firm, no slip hold with a unique textured pattern that complements the slide and frame finish.

The tuned single action trigger breaks crisp and resets short, giving you excellent control for accurate, repeatable shots. TruGlo TFX Pro day and night sights come standard, offering bright visibility in all lighting conditions.

Whether you're at the range or carrying with confidence, the Kimber Rapide Dawn delivers power, precision, and unmistakable style in a trusted 1911 design.
