For shooters who demand classic 1911 ergonomics with modern, optics-ready capability, the right Certified Used example can deliver excellent value without sacrificing reliability. Whether for range work, personal defense, or collection, attention to controls and included accessories separates a practical carry pistol from a project gun.

KIMBER NG 1911 arrives optic-ready with a C&H optic plate, wood grips, and an ambidextrous thumb safety — a configuration that blends traditional 1911 lines with contemporary sighting capability. This Certified Used firearm ships with the original box, a soft case, manual, and two 7-round magazines, and carries a ‘no questions asked’ return policy for added buyer confidence. Priced at $899.99, it sits squarely in the sweet spot for shooters looking for a premium semi auto 1911 at a sensible price point.

Key features and tactical value

The C&H optic plate allows low-profile red dot mounting without extensive gunsmithing, improving sight acquisition for fast defensive shots. The ambidextrous thumb safety provides positive control for left- or right-hand shooters and supports one-handed manipulation drills. Wood grips offer a balance of classic styling and functional purchase, while the two included 7-round magazines reflect the classic 1911 single-stack configuration favored for concealment and grip ergonomics.

Optic-ready advantages

Fitting a micro red dot turns the 1911 into a modern defensive platform: faster target transitions, clearer sight picture under stress, and reduced re-training time if you already use optics on other pistols. The factory-ready C&H plate reduces setup time and avoids custom cutting the slide.

What to verify before buying

The listing does not specify caliber; confirm caliber and bore condition on the product page prior to purchase. Also verify fit-and-function for your preferred holster and carry method — the included soft case and original box make transport and storage straightforward. The Certified Used stamp signals the firearm was inspected and offered in very good to excellent condition.

Buying with confidence

At $899.99, KIMBER NG 1911 represents a compelling Certified Used option for shooters who want a classic 1911 feel with modern optic capability and ambidextrous controls. The package — original box, soft case, manual, and two magazines — plus the ‘no questions asked’ return policy removes much of the risk from buying pre-owned.
