New for 2021, the Micro 9 Rapide by Kimber brings modern improvements to classic platform. Like all of Kimber’s Micro 9 handguns, the Rapide model utilizes 1911-like styling and controls to provide simple and reliable operation, and features a durable yet lightweight all-metal construction. Other familiar features include a flat-faced match-grade trigger that breaks cleanly at 7 lbs. The Micro 9 Rapide itself features a 3.1 inch stainless steel barrel that’s been outfitted with a Titanium Nitride (TiN) gold finish. This finish gives the barrel a striking appearance, and more importantly increases the barrel’s durability while also reducing friction. The Micro 9 Rapide’s slide features stepped cocking serrations, and a series of lightening cuts are also included to reduce lockup time and shows off the gold TiN finish on the barrel. In addition, the Micro 9 Rapide comes with high-visibility three-dot sights and an ambidextrous thumb safety.

Features of the Micro 9 Rapide:

• 1911-like controls
• Flat-faced match-grade trigger
• Lightening cuts on slide to reduce lockup time
• Ambidextrous thumb safety
