Loading...About Kimber SIS II Pistols
Meeting excessive expectations. In 2002, LAPD™ SWAT selected a Kimber 1911 .45 ACP as their duty pistol. In 2005, SWAT Team members put SIS Detectives in contact with Kimber, and the Detectives requested that Kimber create a duty pistol that met their high standards. Things worked out.
SIS pistols have specialized features including SIS slide serrations and light weight SIS Hammer™ SIS Night . Sights™ have a cocking shoulder that allows the slide to be cocked or released with one hand if necessary.
All SIS pistols have flat top slides, along with a premium gray KimPro II finish that is self-lubricating and extremely resistant to the elements, salt and moisture. Models with 5-inch barrels have short or military-length guide rods.
A beavertail grip safety with pronounced bump and memory groves, serrated mainspring housing, ambidextrous thumb safety and special partially-stippled Kimber logo grips are standard. A solid match grade trigger is tuned to break at 4-5 pounds.
