Kimber KHX Pro (OR) .45 ACP

There’s nothing worse than having to send your beloved “Betsy” away! Separation anxiety, followed by night tremors, cause you to sweat bullets, as you nervously await her precious return…from the gunsmith. Just so you can mount your red dot sight, 6 weeks later… That’s right, we’re talking guns here, what else could cause such turmoil?

Today, red dot sights are gaining in popularity to the point of being standardized equipment. With this popularity, wouldn’t it make sense to build an “Optics Ready” pistol as it left the factory? That way, savvy shooters, young and old, could simply remove the milled-slot cover, mount the optic of their choice, and head to the range with their freshly installed sight system. In a perfect world, that’s how it would play out.

Hassle-Free Kimber KHX Pro (OR)

Kimber makes it easy for shooters like you and me, by acknowledging the popularity of red dot sights, deciding to do us all a favor by designing a Commander sized 1911, ready for mounting one of these lifesavers (sight-saver?). The slide is factory milled, ready for mounting optics plates from Vortex, Trijicon and Leupold red dot sights.

The slot cover, complete with integral rear-sight, is screwed in place, maintaining the same contours of the slide, until you’re ready for mounting an accessory sight. Let me tell you about it.
