Kimber is one of the big dogs in 1911 handguns, and when the company mated its 5-inch 1911 with a Trijicon RMR red-dot sight, the resulting KHX Custom (OI) turned out to be an excellent hunting handgun when chambered in 10mm Auto.
Kimber introduces the K6s DASA, outfitted with a double- and single-action trigger mechanism. Chambered in .357 Mag. and available with a 2- or 3-inch barrel, the lightweight six-shooter is a great choice for backcountry carry and protection.
Built with Kimber-style quality and attention to detail, the new Rapide sports gnarly G10 grips, lightening cutouts in the slide that speed up cycle time and a 5-inch barrel.
A great mountain rifle is lightweight, accurate and able withstand all weather conditions. Regardless of the game you’re pursing or your budget, there’s a rifle on this list for you.
The 10mm Auto punches above its weight, and in a 1911 it does so in a relatively small package. The Kimber Camp Guard 10 with its nine-round magazine, as AH contributor Keith Wood noted, is a “1911-lover’s backcountry sidearm."
