Last year, Kimber launched an updated 1911 that drew massive attention. The Rapide Black Ice featured variants in 9mm, .45 ACP and 10mm, upgraded with enhanced components in a very stylized package. Then late last week, Kimber quietly updated the line with the Micro 9 Rapide Black Ice. And it’s every bit as cool as the original.

Chambered in .357 and able to fire .38, the K6s DASA becomes a top EDC choice.

Kimber Micro 9 Rapide Black Ice Details

The Micro 9 Rapide takes design cues from the original. As such, it adds a new level of refinement to the Micro 9 lineup. The Micro 9 Rapide comes in 9mm. It features stepped cocking serrations and slide lightening cuts for quicker lock time. A distinctive V-shape patterned trigger, two-tone KiimPro finish and DLC coated barrel enhance performance. A flush-fitting magwell and front-strap with Stiplex pattern help deliver a sure grip.

The Micro 9 Rapide stands out, but it’s still built to carry. It features a stainless steel, match-grade 3.15-inch barrel. Tru-Glo TFX Pro day/night sights get shooters on target. Meanwhile, black G10 grips provide yet another distinctive feature. A premium aluminum trigger breaks, factory pre-set, at 7 pounds.

The Rapide Black Ice comes in as a smaller 1911 platform. It measures 4.07 inches tall, 1.08 inches wide and 6.1 inches long. Weighing just 15.6 ounces, it proves ideal for carry.

With slide lightening cuts, the Micro 9 Rapide Black Ice stands out.

If the popularity of the original Rapide Black Ice is any indication, the new Micro 9 version should prove highly desired. For even more info, please visit kimberamerica.com.
