JUST FIREARM AND ONBE KIMBER MAGAZINE.

early Yonkers Custom Shop production

Based on the serial number KPE0911, this Kimber Pro Elite was produced in the late 1990s to early 2000s, likely around 1999–2001.

Here’s what that means:

The “KPE" prefix stands for Kimber Pro Elite, a Custom Shop designation.

The Pro Elite was one of Kimber’s premium compact 1911s produced in limited numbers during the early Yonkers, NY years — a time when Kimber’s fit and finish were regarded as some of the best in the company’s history.

These early Custom Shop guns often came with hand-fitted slides, match barrels, and tight tolerances comparable to semi-custom 1911s from Wilson Combat or Les Baer.
