Compact, modern carry with professional features

For operators and responsible citizens who want a subcompact pistol that doesn’t compromise on features, the right balance of ergonomics, sighting and capacity matters. The KIMBER R7 MAKO brings Kimber’s approach to that balance, delivering a carry-ready package with premium components and a focus on practical use.

KIMBER R7 MAKO is Kimber’s first polymer-framed, striker-fired pistol with a subcompact frame designed specifically for concealed carry. The standard equipment list reads like a pro build: TruGlo Tritium Pro night sights with an orange front and white rear dot pattern, ambidextrous controls, and a flat-faced trigger for a predictable break. The OR (Optics Ready) slide provides an RMR/SMS footprint for mounting a compatible red dot directly to the slide.

Shop this product and see how the package fits your carry system; the bundle includes three 15-round magazines, one 13-round magazine and one 11-round magazine, plus a Mission First Tactical Kydex holster and a Kimber-branded range bag — a turnkey option for those who want gear that performs right out of the box.

Key features and carry considerations

Sights and low-light capability

TruGlo Tritium Pro night sights are a standout: tritium inserts provide reliable low-light pickup, and the orange front/white rear contrast speeds target acquisition under stress. That sight set paired with an optics-ready slide gives you a true day/night solution.

Controls and trigger

Ambidextrous controls and a flat-faced trigger make the R7 Mako user-friendly for a wide range of shooters. The flat face promotes consistent finger placement and helps with rapid follow-up shots—an important trait for defensive carry platforms.

Optics-ready slide

The OR model’s RMR/SMS footprint allows direct mounting of compatible red dots without milling aftermarket plates, saving time and preserving slide integrity for many optics options favored by professionals.

Capacity and package value

With multiple magazines (3×15, 13- and 11-round options) the R7 Mako offers flexible carry configurations. The complete bundle and the listed price of $612.99 deliver notable value for someone seeking a fully equipped semi-auto carry pistol in a compact footprint. View product details and pricing
