Kimber R7 Mako Review - Is Kimber's First Polymer Handgun Worth The Hype?

About this video

Colion reviews Kimber’s R7 Mako pistol, a striker-fired, double-stack micro-compact he describes as unexpectedly good. He breaks down the gun’s aesthetics, ergonomics, trigger performance, and shootability, arguing it compares favorably to competitors in its class. Colion suggests traditionalist Kimber fans may resist the departure from 1911s, but believes the R7 Mako is a strong entry at its price point.

Key takeaways

• Colion reports the R7 Mako features fully ambidextrous controls, a recessed serial number, tritium sights, and comes in optics-ready or optics-installed configurations
• Colion praises the rolling trigger as clean-breaking and smooth, the grip texture as excellent, and notes the gun shot tighter groups for him than comparable micro-compacts
• Colion argues the gun feels larger than it is, which he believes builds shooter confidence, yet conceals as easily as other micro-compacts in its category
