Kimber America® 2K11 Series Extended Magazine – Fits 2K11 & 2011 Double-Stack Handguns – 9mm Luger – 26-Round Extended Extended Capacity – Extreme Rigidity Black Finish – 1600097A
The Kimber America® 2K11 Series 26-Round High-Capacity Extended 9mm Magazine (1600097A) represents a pinnacle mechanical milestone in double-stack modular handgun feeding systems, masterfully engineered to unlock absolute ballistic capacity for modern competition and defensive staging loops. Purpose-built to match Kimber's state-of-the-art 2K11 double-stack platform, this extended tactical reservoir shatters traditional single-stack limitations. While legacy handguns require continuous, time-wasting magazine swaps during high-velocity training strings or dynamic multi-gun stages—and generic aftermarket extended tubes suffer from structural body twist that leads to catastrophic nose-diving stovepipe failures—this original equipment manufacturer (OEM) Kimber powerhouse overrides those tactical liabilities. This professional-grade feeding block (669278160979) delivers an uncompromised multi-round tracking pipeline, functioning as an indispensable primary asset for USPSA Open or Limited Optics divisions, hard-running home defense setups, and intensive range validation sequences.
The structural foundation of this high-efficiency extended reservoir is drawn from a monolithic sheet of **premium ordnance-grade high-tensile stainless steel alloy**. Precision-formed to 170mm structural geometry and treated with a deeply bonded **corrosion-resistant Matte Black surface coat**, the tube's interior and exterior walls are highly polished from the factory to eradicate mechanical friction Corridors. Moving past flimsy synthetic feed tracks that flex and splay outward over time under maximum payload pressures, the 1600097A configuration integrates a **precision-angled, anti-friction self-lubricating polymer follower**. Backed smoothly by a **premium high-performance heat-treated coil spring motor**, the internal mechanism supplies perfectly linear upward presentation pressure down to the final empty casing, preventing feed-ramp trajectory hang-ups with wide-mouthed defensive hollow points or light competitive target reloads.
The true operational highlight of this American-engineered masterpiece lies in its robust impact defense properties and seamless platform multi-fitment compatibility. The lower deck is completed by an **impact-resistant removable weighted black polymer extended bumper base pad**, which effortlessly absorbs punishing drop shocks when forcefully ejected onto hard, unyielding concrete range floors while providing an excellent indexing surface for lightning-fast reloads. Detailed with clean, factory-punched **vertical witness holes running down the rear spine** for instant visual round-count tracking updates, this heavy-duty magazine delivers absolute structural authority, seating smoothly into **Kimber 2K11 models, specialized double-stack 2011 platform variants, and standard 1911 Double-Stack clones** alike. (Note: Always cross-reference local high-capacity jurisdictional laws prior to live-fire transport or purchase execution.)
Includes: (1) Kimber America 2K11 Series Extended 26-Round 9mm High-Capacity Magazine (Polished Stainless Steel Tube Core, Matte Black Coating), Pre-Installed High-Endurance Wire Coil Spring, Self-Lubricating Follower, Impact-Resistant Removable Polymer Base Pad, and Original Factory Presentation Retail Packaging.
*High-Capacity 2011/2K11 Spring Conditioning & Maintenance Guidance: The Kimber 1600097A utilizes an exceptionally high-tension performance spring wire array to maintain absolute reliability across its full 26-round capacity loop. When first deploying this magazine, loading it to maximum volume may feel highly compressed; leaving the reservoir staged at full capacity for 48 to 72 hours will comfortably condition the coil wire for routine field use. For maximum feeding endurance, regularly remove the base bumper to wipe away abrasive downrange unburnt powder sludge from inside the internal tracks, keeping the tube bone dry and free of heavy wet oil traps.
