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 High Threat Protection II (Blackwater) with Serial Number #KBWHTP00! 

 

 

This Kimber Factory Letter documents a Kimber High Threat Protection II (Blackwater) pistol, identified by the highly significant serial number KBWHTP00. Chambered in .45 ACP, this model features a 4-inch barrel, a matte black finish, and wood grips. The document highlights the firearm's historical importance as Serial Number One of a special edition series, a designation reserved for the inaugural example of a limited production run. Historically, these inaugural pieces were not released to the public but were instead retained within the private collection of Kimber's founder and owner, Leslie Edelman. The letter, signed by Edelman and dated February 6, 2026, confirms its release from the Kimber Vault for delivery to Bryant Ridge Co. in Liberty, Kentucky.

Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Kimber High Threat Protection II (Blackwater) in this configuration represents a more compact, commander-length variant of the platform, featuring a 4-inch barrel that offers an ideal balance between duty performance and carry practicality. While retaining the core elements of the HTP series—such as front strap checkering, enhanced ergonomics, and a duty-oriented design—this shorter configuration is far less commonly encountered than full-size Government models. The association with Blackwater USA further distinguishes the pistol, reflecting its connection to one of the most recognized private security organizations of the modern era. What elevates this example is its believed status as a limited or restricted distribution model, reportedly offered to senior-level personnel within Blackwater rather than the general commercial market. Firearms produced for internal distribution or presentation within organizations are typically manufactured in very small numbers, often without formal catalog listings or widely available production data. This lack of documentation, combined with the specific 4-inch configuration, places this pistol into a category that is seldom encountered and difficult to compare against other known examples. From a collector’s standpoint, the combination of a non-standard barrel length, Blackwater association, and restricted availability creates a highly desirable and niche offering. Pieces tied to private military contractors—especially those with potential internal distribution or presentation origins—carry a unique appeal due to their exclusivity and real-world association. With few comparable examples known and limited information surrounding production, this Kimber HTP II stands as a rare and compelling opportunity for advanced collectors seeking a distinctive and story-driven modern 1911.
