The Kimber Rapide Heat OR is a full-size 1911-style semi-automatic pistol chambered in .45 ACP. Its steel frame features a Picatinny rail, while the optic-ready slide uses stepped cocking serrations, lightening cuts, and a rear optic cover plate with an integrated rear sight. A five-inch DLC-finished threaded barrel supports suppressor or muzzle-device use. The pistol combines a crisp Kimber V-Cut match-grade trigger with black and red G10 grips and Stiplex front-strap texturing for a secure, controlled hold. KimPro II finish helps protect the steel components against chemicals, moisture, salt, and ultraviolet exposure. It ships with one 8-round Tac-Mag magazine.
