The Kimber Rapide Dawn 10mm (brand part no. 3000424) puts full-power 10mm performance into the Rapide’s distinctive styling, with stepped cocking serrations, slide lightening cuts and a Gold TiN-coated barrel. The silver KimPro II finish with brush-polished flats is set off by gray and black G10 grips and Stiplex stippling on the front strap. Tru-Glo TFX Pro Day/Night sights with an orange front ring give it a bright sight picture, and a V-Cut aluminum trigger breaks cleanly. Kimber lists a 5-inch barrel and an 8-round magazine for this model, which makes it a good fit for range days and the field.
