Kimber 2K11 Stainless Target 9mm 5in 20+1
The Kimber 2K11 Stainless Target 9mm 5in 20+1 is a high-capacity 1911-format pistol built for precision and modern functionality. It pairs a 5-inch fluted, ramped stainless barrel with an optic-ready stainless slide and TAG Fiberlok 2 fiber-optic sights for clear sight picture options. The pistol uses a stainless steel frame finished in Matte KimPro Granite and ships with a Kevlar/carbon-fiber grip module.

Key Features
- 5-inch Fluted, Ramped Stainless Barrel – Why it matters: The fluting reduces weight and helps with heat dissipation, while the ramp feeds reliably. You get consistent accuracy shot after shot.
- Optic-Ready Stainless Slide with TAG Fiberlok 2 Sights – Why it matters: You can mount a red dot without a gunsmith, and the fiber-optic front gives a bright sight picture fast. Perfect for competition or range work.
- Kevlar/Carbon-Fiber Grip Module – Why it matters: This grip is lightweight and tough, with a texture that locks in your hand even when wet. It also absorbs some recoil, keeping you on target.
- Ambidextrous Thumb Safety and GT Match-Grade Trigger – Why it matters: Lefties and righties can both use the safety easily, and the trigger breaks clean at a consistent pull weight. You get more control and better groups.
Who It’s For
This pistol is for the shooter who wants a 1911 platform but needs more than 8 rounds. It’s great for USPSA or IDPA competition, where capacity counts. It also suits anyone who wants a reliable, accurate 9mm for home defense or range practice. New gun owners will appreciate the familiar 1911 controls and the easy-to-see sights.
Pros/Cons
- Pros: High 20+1 capacity in a 1911 format, optic-ready slide saves on machining costs, fiber-optic sights for fast target acquisition, match-grade trigger for precision shooting, ambidextrous safety for all shooters.
- Cons: The Kevlar/carbon-fiber grip may feel different from traditional 1911 grips, and the price point is higher than some polymer-framed 9mms. Some shooters might prefer a metal trigger over the GT match-grade unit.
Comparison: Kimber 2K11 vs. Zev Technologies OZ9 vs. Agency Arms Syndicate
| Feature | Kimber 2K11 Stainless Target | Zev Technologies OZ9 | Agency Arms Syndicate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Caliber | 9mm | 9mm | 9mm |
| Barrel Length | 5 inches | 5.22 inches | 5 inches |
| Capacity | 20+1 | 17+1 | 17+1 |
| Frame Material | Stainless steel with Kevlar/carbon-fiber grip | Polymer with steel chassis | Aluminum with polymer grip |
| Optic Ready | Yes | Yes (RMR footprint) | Yes (RMR footprint) |
| Trigger | GT match-grade, 4-5 lbs | Zev adjustable, 3-4 lbs | Agency trigger, 4-4.5 lbs |
| Price | $1,964.98 | $2,199 | $2,499 |
The Kimber 2K11 offers higher capacity and a stainless frame at a lower price than both competitors. The Zev OZ9 has a modular chassis system, and the Agency Syndicate is known for its hand-fit quality. But for the money, the Kimber gives you a ready-to-run competition gun with no extra work.
FAQ
Does the Kimber 2K11 come with extra magazines?
It ships with one 20-round magazine. Extra magazines are available separately from Kimber or aftermarket suppliers.
Is the slide cut for a specific red dot footprint?
Yes, the slide is cut for the Trijicon RMR footprint, which also fits Holosun 407C/507C and other compatible optics.
Can I use this pistol for concealed carry?
It’s a full-size 5-inch gun, so concealed carry is possible with a proper holster and cover garment, but it’s better suited for competition, range use, or home defense.
What’s the trigger pull weight on the GT match-grade trigger?
Per Kimber specs, the trigger breaks at 4 to 5 pounds with a clean, consistent pull.
Does the Kevlar/carbon-fiber grip require any special maintenance?
No special maintenance. Just clean it with a damp cloth and mild soap as needed. It’s durable and resistant to solvents.
