I'm ready to part ways with my Kimber Tactical Pro II. For those that don't know, the Tactical line is pretty much in the upper echelon of Kimber's 1911's. Has serrated front strap, night sights, mag well, ambi-safety, pretty much all the bells and whistles. The 4" barrel and aluminum frame makes it great for carry. Was purchased new in 2009, maybe has 1000 rounds through it. Came from the factory with an out-of-spec slide stop that Kimber replaced for free, and has run like a top with zero stoppages since then. Was my carry piece for awhile, frame shows minor wear/rub marks, and there is an idiot mark. Due to the aluminum frame however, rust is not a concern. The slide has been cerakoted. Yes, it's a carry piece, not a safe queen - the sad truth is, Kimber's finish sucks - but this is entirely functional in it's current state, and by no means abused, and if at some point somebody wants to make it pretty, it's already half-way cerakoted, should only cost $50-ish to have the frame done to match. Night sights still glow bright. Includes two Kimber Tac Mags.
To sweeten the pot a bit further, I will include a Kimber brand speed bump grip safety, a new Kimber brand magazine well (the current safety and mag well show some of the most finish wear, so simply installing the new included parts would clean up the looks a lot), a pack of Kimber grip screws, a pack of Kimber take-down tools, and just for giggles a green Kimber logo hat, and a size XL green Kimber branded long sleeve tee, all new and in their packages still.
Additionally - since as I mentioned this is a carry piece, not a safe queen, let's make this a carry package - I will now include an UBG Canute IWB leather holster, a leather single mag carrier, and a box of Winchester PDX1 230grn hollowpoints with the pistol. Everything you need to be carrying a sweet 1911, in one fell swoop.
So - $1200 for the pistol new, $100 worth of Cerakote on the slide, $180 worth of Kimber accessories, $75 holster (without the 2 month wait), $25 mag carrier, $25 box of ammo = $1,605 value.
I would like to trade for some combination of a 9mm Walther P99/P99c/PPS, a Beretta M9/92, a stainless S&W J/K/L frame in 357, and cash. Looking to get this moved, make me an offer.
