Key Features
- Trijicon SRO Red Dot Sight: This pistol ships with the Trijicon SRO already mounted on a dedicated plate, giving you a wide, clear window for fast target acquisition in competition or defensive drills.
- Stan Chen Customs Magwell: The integrated magwell speeds up reloads by guiding magazines home under pressure — a must for high-capacity stages or tactical training.
- GT Match Trigger: A crisp, adjustable trigger with minimal take-up and a clean break helps you place shots exactly where you aim, round after round.
- Tool-Less Guide Rod: Field stripping is simplified with a tool-less guide rod, saving time during cleaning and maintenance between matches.
- Three Magazines Included: You get three 20-round magazines right out of the box, so you can load up for extended range sessions without buying extras.
Who It’s For
This Kimber is built for the competitive shooter who loves the feel of a 1911 but needs double-stack capacity in 9mm. It’s also ideal for the southern gentleman who enjoys a Saturday match at the local gun club, or the bird hunter who wants a reliable sidearm for the field. If you appreciate traditional lines with modern performance, this pistol fits your hand and your style.
Pros and Cons
- Pros: Factory-mounted Trijicon SRO saves you the hassle of buying and installing an optic; high 20+1 capacity without sacrificing 1911 ergonomics; Stan Chen magwell and GT trigger enhance competitive performance.
- Cons: The aluminum grip module may feel lighter than a steel frame for some shooters, which can affect recoil management during rapid fire — something to consider if you prefer a heavier platform.

The Kimber 2K11 comes with the Trijicon SRO out of the box, which adds significant value compared to competitors that require a separate optic purchase. Its 20+1 capacity also edges out the Zev OZ9 and Timney Alpha for magazine-fed stage runs. However, the aluminum grip may not appeal to shooters who prefer the weight of a steel frame.
