Kimber's Rapide Dawn 1911 Custom comes equipped with a wide array of accuracy-boosting enhancements to make it a high-performance target pistol. Like all of Kimber's 1911 handguns, the Rapide Dawn Custom utilizes a match-grade barrel and a match-grade trigger, but Kimber takes these features one step further. The barrel is optimized with a TiN (Titanium Nitride) finish, giving it a striking gold appearance while also improving durability and reducing friction. The trigger is V-Cut, and breaks cleanly at 4 to 5 lbs. For increased accuracy and faster target acquisition, this 1911 is outfitted with Tru-Glo TFX Day/Night sights with a high contrast orange ring on the front sight. For superior weapon control, the Rapide Dawn Custom comes standard with black/gray G10 grips with aggressive texturing, and stepped cocking serrations on the slide for positive manipulations in any conditions.
