Notable features and field use

Optics and sights

This R7 MAKO arrives with a Crimson Trace CT-1500 red dot pre-installed and co-witnesses with high-contrast TruGlo Tritium Pro night sights. That combination offers fast sight acquisition during daylight and reliable alignment in low light—valuable for defensive scenarios where speed equals survival.

Controls and trigger

Ambidextrous controls and a flat-faced trigger make the R7 MAKO intuitive for right- and left-handed shooters. The striker-fired design provides a consistent trigger pull that many users find predictable under stress.

Platform and caliber

Chambered in 9x19mm (9mm), this subcompact delivers a widely available, effective defensive cartridge with manageable recoil for quick follow-up shots. The polymer frame keeps weight down while retaining durability for daily carry.

Practical considerations

Because this is a pre-owned firearm, the seller notes: we do not test fire used guns; all guns are function checked upon receipt and, unless stated otherwise, are functional. Buyers should factor in this policy and inspect or have a gunsmith verify operation after purchase if desired.

For those seeking an optic-ready subcompact with factory night sights, ambidextrous ergonomics, and an included CT-1500 red dot, the KIMBER R7 MAKO is a compelling option. View product details and pricing on the shop page to confirm availability and current listings.
