The Kimber Custom Next Gen (brand part no. 3500400) updates the classic 1911 platform in its original chambering, pairing a 5-inch barrel in .45 ACP with a modern optics-ready slide in a satin stainless finish. Kimber cuts the slide for direct red-dot mounting, keeps the traditional thumb safety and single-action manual of arms, and ships two 7-round magazines for 7+1 capacity. The Next Gen treatment modernizes the internals while preserving the trigger feel that keeps shooters coming back to the 1911. Among semi-auto handguns, this stainless Custom Next Gen favors 1911 shooters who want factory optics compatibility in the classic .45 configuration.
