The Custom Crimson Carry II™
is light, powerful & absolutely
dependable.
Carry Light.
Introducing Kimber Crimson Carry 1911 .45 ACP Pistols.
Crimson Carry pistols combine light weight and unequaled Kimber ® quality with
the proven tactical advantage of Crimson Trace ® Lasergrips. Standard Kimber
features like match grade barrel, chamber, barrel bushing and trigger, rounded
and blended edges, beveled magazine well and high ride beavertail grip safety
ensure unequaled performance. Custom touches include a new recessed slide stop
pin and two-tone non-reflective finish. Proudly made in America, a Kimber 1911
is the best choice for duty, home defense and concealed carry. See Kimber pistols
in action at www.kimberamerica.com.
The Ultra Crimson Carry II™
features a 3-inch bushingless
bull barrel & short grip to
enhance concealability.
Weight is only 25 ounces.
The Pro Crimson Carry II™
has a 4-inch barrel & full-
length grip. Ideal for duty
carry or home defense, it
weighs just 28 ounces.
Crimson Carry .45 ACP pistols feature Crimson Trace
Lasergrips in a new, exclusive rosewood nish with classic
checkering & the Kimber logo.
The Choice of America’s Best.
