Kimber is recognized for producing premium firearms, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern manufacturing techniques. The company, originally established in 1979, has evolved from its focus on rimfire rifles to offering a wide range of high-quality rifles and pistols, including their popular 1911 handguns. Kimber’s commitment to precision engineering, handcrafted assembly, and high-performance materials has positioned it as a top choice for hunters, competitive shooters, and law enforcement agencies like the LAPD and the U.S. Marines.
Kimber’s rifles, such as the Montana and Adirondack models, are known for their accuracy and durable designs, often featuring carbon-fiber stocks, match-grade chambers, and lightweight construction tailored for various hunting and tactical applications. Their pistols, particularly the iconic 1911 line, are highly regarded for their reliability, customization options, and ergonomic design.
All Kimber firearms are made in the U.S., with production facilities now based in Troy, Alabama, following a relocation due to stricter New York gun laws.
