An integral lug at the breech end of the barrel incorporates the feed ramp and holds the barrel link. The 3-inch, stainless steel, match-grade barrel has a 1-in-16-inch twist rate and is precisely fitted to the slide, so no separate barrel bushing is used. The pistol’s fixed sights are dovetailed into the slide, and both the front blade and Tactical Wedge rear sight are fitted with tritium inserts for enhanced low-light shooting. I tested a 9mm Kimber Onyx Ultra II that arrived in a black plastic carrying case lined with foam rubber and included a safety lock, a takedown tool and a detailed owner’s manual. The aluminum alloy frame wears a satin silver finish, and the thin, ball-milled Micarta grips are black in color. Smaller parts like the grip safety, ambidextrous thumb safety, slide release and magazine catch are also coated in black PVD. The slide on the Kimber Onyx Ultra II pistol has a shiny, deep black PVD coating over polished stainless steel with cut scroll engraving. The moniker is appropriate, as an onyx is normally a black gemstone with white bands.
