About the Kimber Custom II 1911
Kimber put a fully accessorized 1911 — beavertail safety, ambidextrous controls, target trigger, low-profile sights — into a price bracket below the custom-shop competitors when the Custom II launched in 1995. It is the gun that gave 1911 buyers an out-of-the-box configuration that previously required a gunsmith's services.
Why the Kimber Custom II 1911 Is Valued
Kimber 1911s have a polarized reputation but consistent resale. The Custom II remains the volume leader in the bracket and is straightforward to flip on the used market.
What Affects This Gun's Value
Stainless adds $75–125 over blued. Two-tone editions are at par with stainless. TLE/RL (rail) variants add $50–100. Series I (pre-2002, external extractor) sell below Series II.
