Item Description
Bryant Ridge Co. is proud to present a once-in-a-generation offering direct from the legendary Kimber Vault—an extraordinary collection of firearms that have never before been released to the public. These remarkable pieces include Serial Number One examples, rare prototypes, and factory display & salesman samples, ALL of which were retained internally for decades by Kimber's Founder, Owner, & CEO, Leslie Edelman.
Until now, these firearms have remained unseen outside of the company’s inner circle, making this a truly unprecedented opportunity for collectors. Each firearm will be accompanied by an official Kimber Factory Certificate of Authenticity, further solidifying its provenance and historical significance.
As the exclusive outlet entrusted with their release, Bryant Ridge Co. offers collectors a unique chance to acquire historically significant Kimber firearms with unmatched provenance and desirability.
Bryant Ridge Co. is pleased to present this semi-automatic pistol today for a penny-start auction; this is the Kimber 84M Montana with Serial Number #KM08685!
This Kimber Factory Letter documents a Kimber Tactical Custom II (SBT20), identified by the significant serial number SBT20-00. Chambered in .45 ACP, this firearm features a 5-inch barrel, a matte black finish, and wood grips adorned with Special Operations Command Emblems. The document designates this pistol as "Serial Number One" of a special edition series, a title reserved for the inaugural example of a limited production run. According to the remarks, this piece was historically retained within the personal collection of Kimber’s founder and owner, Leslie Edelman, and was never released to the public. Signed by Edelman and dated February 6, 2026, the letter confirms its release from the Kimber Vault and its delivery to Bryant Ridge Co. in Liberty, Kentucky.

Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Kimber 84M Montana is a lightweight, precision-built bolt-action rifle designed specifically for serious hunters who demand performance in the field without excess weight. Built around Kimber’s Model 84M controlled-round-feed action, this rifle is known for its reliability and smooth operation, even in harsh environments. Featuring a stainless steel barreled action paired with a rugged synthetic stock, the Montana is engineered for all-weather durability while maintaining an exceptionally light carry weight—often around the 5 to 6-pound range depending on configuration. From a performance standpoint, the 84M Montana is built for accuracy and efficiency. It incorporates a match-grade barrel and a crisp, adjustable trigger, allowing for consistent shot placement across a variety of hunting scenarios. The controlled-round-feed system, inspired by classic Mauser-style designs, enhances feeding reliability—an important feature for hunters operating in remote or demanding conditions. Chambered in a range of popular hunting calibers, the Montana is versatile enough for everything from deer-sized game to larger North American species depending on configuration. From a collector’s and enthusiast’s perspective, the 84M Montana holds strong appeal due to its reputation as a premium ultralight hunting rifle. Kimber rifles are produced in smaller numbers compared to mass-market manufacturers, and the Montana line has developed a loyal following among backcountry hunters who prioritize weight savings without sacrificing quality. Well-maintained examples continue to be highly sought after, offering a combination of refined craftsmanship, field-ready durability, and practical performance that defines Kimber’s bolt-action rifle lineup.
