Description
The 2K11 is Kimber stepping into the double-stack 1911 world, and they clearly didn't want to just show up. They wanted to make some noise. This Stainless Target version pairs a matte KimPro Granite stainless frame with a Coyote PVD polished barrel, and the look turns heads at the range before you ever fire a shot. Underneath the finish work is a serious match pistol: a 5-inch fluted, ramped bull barrel with 5R rifling, a 1:10 twist, and a recessed target crown, feeding from a sub-frame that Kimber shaped specifically for consistent magazine fit and smooth cycling.
What Makes the 2K11 Stainless Target Shoot So Well
The flat-faced GT match trigger breaks between 3 and 4 pounds, and it is the kind of trigger that makes tight groups feel almost unfair. The stainless slide wears custom 2K11 serrations and lightening cuts that trim reciprocating mass, and it runs an external extractor for dependable ejection through long range sessions. Up top you get a TAG FiberLok 2 red fiber optic front paired with an adjustable rear built into the optic cover plate, and when you are ready to mount a dot, the slide is milled for optics with a C&H Precision RMR adapter plate included. The MJD grip module is molded from carbon fiber and Kevlar, so it is light, tough, and textured to match the slide serrations.
Built for the Range, Ready for More
Handling details are where this pistol earns its keep. The ambidextrous thumb safety and bumped beavertail grip safety work no matter which hand you favor, the toolless guide rod makes takedown painless, and the accessory rail is there if you want a light. It also plays nicely with common 2011-pattern magazines, which is a nice bonus for anyone already invested in the platform. Each 2K11 is assembled by a single Kimber technician, and it shows in the fit.
Kimber 2K11 Stainless Target 9mm, In the Box

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Kimber 2K11 Stainless Target optics ready, and what footprint does it use?
Yes, the slide is milled for red dots and ships with a C&H Precision RMR adapter plate right in the box. Additional C&H plates are available for footprints like RMSc, DeltaPoint Pro, ACRO, and 509T, so you have plenty of options. If you shoot irons, the included cover plate has a built-in adjustable rear sight paired with the fiber optic front.
Will the 2K11 accept other 2011-style magazines?
It runs on double-stack 2011-pattern magazines and has been confirmed to work with Staccato mags, and owners report good results with Prodigy mags as well. That gives you affordable options for stocking up beyond the three factory magazines it comes with. The reshaped sub-frame is designed specifically for consistent magazine fit and feeding.
How does the trigger compare to a traditional single-stack 1911?
You get the same crisp, single-action feel 1911 fans love, just in a higher-capacity package. The flat-faced GT match-grade aluminum trigger breaks at a light 3 to 4 pounds with a clean, short reset. It is one of the standout features of the 2K11 and a big reason this pistol shoots so accurately.
Is the 2K11 Stainless Target only for competition, or does it work for other uses?
Competition and range work are its bread and butter, thanks to the match barrel, light trigger, and optic-ready slide. That said, the accessory rail, dependable external extractor, and generous capacity make it a solid pick for home defense duty too. It is a full-size steel pistol, so it soaks up recoil nicely but is not really built with concealment in mind.
