The Kimber Stainless II High Polished Model 3200397 is a premium full-size .45 ACP 1911 that takes Kimber’s proven Stainless II platform and gives it an upgraded high-polish stainless-steel treatment for a distinctive presentation-grade appearance. Kimber’s supplied product page identifies this exact configuration as the Stainless II High Polished.
Built in the traditional Government-size format, the Stainless II platform uses a 5-inch barrel and all-stainless-steel construction. Kimber’s published Stainless II specifications establish a full-size configuration weighing approximately 38 ounces, giving the pistol the substantial balance and recoil-dampening characteristics associated with a steel-frame 1911.
The defining characteristic of Model 3200397 is its high-polished stainless finish. Rather than the more utilitarian satin treatment found on a standard Stainless II, this model emphasizes polished metal surfaces for a brighter, more refined appearance. It is an especially attractive configuration for customers who prefer the traditional appearance of a premium polished 1911.
The pistol retains Kimber’s classic 1911 architecture with a single-action trigger, external hammer, manual thumb safety, grip safety, single-stack magazine system, and full-size grip frame. These traditional controls are combined with the upgraded features that distinguish Kimber’s Stainless II family from a basic GI-pattern 1911.
Kimber’s historical factory literature confirms that the full-size Stainless II is built entirely from stainless steel, unlike the Pro and Ultra Stainless models, which use lightweight aluminum frames. The standard full-size Stainless II uses a 5-inch barrel and weighs 38 ounces.
Model 3200397 therefore offers the familiar handling and construction of Kimber’s full-size Stainless II with a more visually striking finish. It is particularly well suited to customers looking for a traditional all-stainless .45 ACP 1911 with a premium polished presentation.
