Frequently Asked Questions
Kimber 38 Super for sale
Is the Kimber 38 Super a good gun?
Kimber's .38 Super 1911s are well-regarded for their trigger quality, reliability, and manageable recoil similar to 9mm. They're expensive—around $1,300–$1,400—but deliver solid craftsmanship suited to concealed carry and range use. Most owners report positive experiences.
Does Kimber make a 38 Super?
Yes, Kimber makes multiple .38 Super models, including the Stainless II, the Pro Carry HD II California Compliant, and the Rampart Compensated 1911, among others. These full-size 1911 semi-autos are available from 21 retailers, typically priced around $1,344, with most listings ranging from $1,090 to $1,915.
What are the advantages of 38 Super?
.38 Super delivers higher velocity and flatter trajectory than 9mm from the same-sized pistol, with more energy downrange. Recoil stays manageable, allowing faster, more accurate shooting than .45 ACP. It excels in competition and defensive use where speed and controllability are priorities.
What is the best 38 Super pistol?
"Best" depends on your needs. Kimber's .38 Super models are well-regarded for trigger quality and reliability. Les Baer offers premium options for competition shooters. Colt's Competition model provides solid value around $900. Wilson Combat is prominently featured as a well-regarded .38 Super option. Try before buying when possible.
Can I shoot 9mm out of a 38 Super?
No, not reliably. Some .38 Super chambers will accept and fire 9mm, and some shooters report no noticeable difference. However, the 9mm's slightly larger base diameter means it won't chamber in all .38 Super firearms. For reliable use, a dedicated 9mm barrel and possible extractor tuning are recommended.
