Kimber advances the cause of prep and practice for owners of compact 1911 carry guns with its new Rimfire Compact Conversion Kit. Boasting a 4" heavy-contour barrel in an aluminum slide, the conversion conveniently the owner's .45 to an easy-shooting, economical .22 LR. The kit is engineered to fit Kimber's popular Compact and Pro Carry Series models and clearly makes those guns more versatile and valuable. Complete with a .22 magazine, the kit will be available this spring directly at KimberAmerica.com.

Get a closer look at the kit in the video below:
