The Kimber Rapide Heat 1911 is a high-performance handgun packed with features. Like all of Kimber's 1911s, the Rapide Heat boasts exceptional accuracy. This is largely thanks to a combination of a match-grade V-Cut aluminum trigger that breaks cleanly at 4-5 lbs, a match-grade chamber, and a precision machined match-grade barrel. Accuracy is further enhanced with suppressor height 3-dot sights, and an optics cut in the slide allows a micro red dot to be installed for faster, more intuitive target acquisition/engagement.
In addition to its match-winning accuracy, the Rapide Heat offers the maximum performance that Kimber is known for. A series of lightning cuts in the slide speeds up lock time, and a lowered, flared ejection port assists in the ejection of spent brass. The slide is hand fitted to the frame, and all metal parts are given a KimPro II finish for superior resistance to corrosion and the elements. Other features of the Rapide Heat include a set of Black/Red G10 grips, as well as a stiplex texturing on the front strap.
This model features Kimber's KimPro II black finish with vibrant red accents. One 8-round Tac-Mag magazine is included with each purchase.

Shopping at Guns.com gives you the backing of a company that is committed to your satisfaction. And unlike our competitors, it extends beyond the buying process. We get the FFL from your store – others make you find it, copy it, and fax it. We have a generous return policy, and handle everything – you don’t have to go back to the store. And our Rangemasters are here to answer all your questions about our products or process. We're bringing a level of service to the online gun buying experience that is unheard of.
Many online gun sales actually take away from your local community. Instead of buying a gun that’s on your local store’s shelf, most retailers drop ship it from a warehouse in another state. At Guns.com, if an FFL is part of our network, we sell THEIR guns first whenever possible. That way, we’re helping small businesses in your community AND if they have it in stock, you can pick your gun up IMMEDIATELY – it’s how business should be done.
Most everything can be easily bought online these days. But for some reason, buying a gun online can be complicated. Most websites are poorly organized, don’t tell you a lot about what you’re buying, and leave you on your own to figure out what you want. Guns.com is built to be simple – easily organized products, useful descriptions from experts, and support to guide you to the right choice. Spend your time enjoying the gun you want, not getting frustrated with a complex website that makes gun buying hard.
