Friends of the NRA: The Kimber Marias

The Kimber MariasKimber decided to focus its efforts on its M1911 pistol and center-fire rifle lines, so the Yonkers, N.Y., maker will no longer be importing its side-by-side Valier or its Marias shotguns. The good news for NRA members is that Kimber donated $600,000 worth of Marias Grade I and Grade II over-unders to benefit the Friends of NRA.

Kimber and Friends of NRA are proud to announce the new Kimber Sponsorship Level.

These donated firearms feature a limited quantity of various models, including Grade I and II wood with 26", 28" or 30" Belgian rust blue finish barrels. The Marias also feature a Turkish walnut Prince of Wales semi-pistol grip stock or an English stock. There are only 90 of these Marias available.

The American Rifleman published a story about the Kimber donation in their September 2008 issue (on page 20).
