Kimber 2K11 Pro Eclipse OR 9MM Luger 9X19 Para 4 25 Barrel 19 Rounds Two Tone

About this product

The Kimber 2K11 Pro Eclipse OR is a double-stack, 1911-pattern 9mm pistol combining a stainless steel frame with a matte KimPro Black finish and a black DLC-finished slide, giving it the two-tone look the Eclipse name refers to. This configuration carries a 4.25-inch fluted, crowned bull barrel, a factory optics-ready cut using the RMR footprint, and a 19-round magazine capacity that's high even by double-stack 1911 standards.

What sets the 2K11 Pro apart from other double-stack 1911s?

Kimber built the 2K11 Pro line with a match-grade GT trigger offering a crisp 3-to-4-pound pull, a TAG Precision FiberLok 2 front sight, and an optics mounting system that uses a C&H Precision adapter plate to run the pistol with an RMR-pattern red dot. The combination of a genuinely tuned trigger, premium sight, and factory optics compatibility positions this well above entry-level double-stack 1911s like the Girsan Witness2311, both in build quality and price.

Is the 2K11 Pro Eclipse optics-ready out of the box?

Yes, the brushed slide includes an optics-ready cut compatible with the RMR footprint via the included C&H Precision adapter plate, so a compatible red dot mounts without needing a separate milling job or aftermarket plate purchase.

What's the capacity, and how does California's magazine law apply?

This model ships with two 19-round magazines. California limits detachable magazines to 10 rounds for sale and possession in the state, so the factory 19-round magazines exceed that cap substantially, and California also maintains its own roster of handguns cleared for retail sale. Confirm compliant magazine options and current roster status for this model directly with your FFL before ordering.

How does delivery work for a pistol at this price point?

As a firearm, the 2K11 Pro Eclipse ships to a licensed FFL dealer for pickup, not to your home address, where you'll complete a background check and the standard transfer paperwork.

At about 35 ounces and 7.79 inches overall, the 2K11 Pro Eclipse sits in a full-size, all-metal-slide weight class built for range and competition shooting rather than concealed carry. Kimber's fit and finish on this line has generally drawn favorable comparisons to considerably more expensive custom 2011-pattern pistols, which is the core value proposition here — genuine match-grade features from an established American manufacturer, at a price still well under full custom-shop builds, though still a meaningful investment relative to entry-level double-stack 1911s.

Owners moving up from a standard single-stack 1911 or a budget double-stack option like the Girsan Witness2311 will notice the difference immediately in trigger feel and overall fit — the GT trigger's shorter, more consistent break is the kind of upgrade that typically requires custom gunsmith work on a lesser platform, and here it comes standard from the factory. The RMR-footprint optics mount is also a genuine convenience over pistols that require a separate milling job or proprietary adapter plate purchased after the fact. As with any premium firearm purchase, holster and magazine pouch options may be more limited than for a mass-market pistol simply due to lower overall sales volume, so budget time to source quality gear specifically sized for this frame. Given the price point, this is squarely a range, competition, and collection piece rather than an everyday-carry gun, and buyers should evaluate it against that use case rather than against compact carry pistols at a fraction of the cost.
